"Still Life with Cup and Sugar Bowl" is a 1904 oil-on-canvas painting by the famous French Impressionist artist Pierre-Auguste Renoir. The painting features a simple still life arrangement, consisting of a cup, sugar bowl, and two oranges, all set on a white tablecloth. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, creating a sense of spontaneity and movement, a hallmark of Renoir's style. Renoir, known for his vibrant depictions of figures, also captures the beauty of everyday objects with an almost photographic quality, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow.
