Ralph Atkinson’s 1937 watercolor painting "Candlestick" depicts a delicate, blue glass candlestick. The artwork, measuring 30.1 x 23 cm, showcases Atkinson's meticulous detail in capturing the light reflecting off the glass. The subtle variations in the blue hue, combined with the intricate details of the candlestick's design, create a sense of realism. This piece, often admired for its simple elegance, exemplifies Atkinson's skill in capturing the beauty of everyday objects.
