Still Life. Vegetables. 1916

"Still Life. Vegetables." is a 1916 painting by Russian artist Pyotr Konchalovsky, known for his vibrant use of color and textured brushstrokes. The work depicts a simple still life arrangement of vegetables, including artichokes, leeks, brussels sprouts, and a lemon, set against a backdrop of a mortar and pestle. Konchalovsky's bold and expressive style, influenced by both Impressionism and Cubism, gives the mundane objects a sense of life and energy, characteristic of his approach to still life compositions.
