Silver Teapot c. 1936

"Silver Teapot" is a 1936 painting by Jules Lefevere, depicting a silver teapot with its lid slightly ajar. The artist's precise rendering of the teapot's form and the play of light on its surface showcase Lefevere's mastery of realism and attention to detail. This work exemplifies the artist's focus on everyday objects and their inherent beauty, a characteristic of still life painting. The simple composition and muted color palette further enhance the piece's contemplative quality. Lefevere's skillful representation of the teapot's metallic sheen and the subtle play of light and shadow contribute to the artwork's enduring appeal.
