Candlestick c. 1941

"Candlestick" is a watercolor painting created by Van Silvay in 1941. The artwork, which measures 29.2 x 24 cm, depicts a simple, clear glass candlestick with a distinctive twist in the center of the stem. The minimalist composition and the use of soft tones contribute to the elegant and refined aesthetic of the piece. Van Silvay's expertise in capturing the subtle details of the glass object gives the artwork a sense of realism and depth. The detailed rendering of the glass candlestick demonstrates the artist's skill in still life, a popular genre that has been explored by artists for centuries.
