Still Life 1910

"Still Life" by Kmetty János (1889-1975) is a vibrant oil painting from 1910 that showcases the artist's mastery of color and form. The composition is a classic still life, featuring a cup and saucer, a pitcher, and three peaches arranged on a dark tabletop. The artist uses bold, saturated colors to create a sense of depth and dimensionality, particularly in the blue ceramic objects that stand out against the rich, dark background. The juxtaposition of geometric shapes and organic forms reflects a fascination with modern art trends of the time, showcasing Kmetty's individual style within the genre.
