Lemon, Grapes and Wine Bottle, Rome 1965

"Lemon, Grapes and Wine Bottle, Rome" is a 1965 still life painting by American artist Frank Mason (1921-2009). The painting depicts a traditional arrangement of fruit, a wine bottle, and a woven basket resting on a white tablecloth with a dark, shadowed background. Mason’s mastery of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism, highlighting the texture of the objects and the richness of the colors. This piece is a prime example of Mason's work in the genre of still life and showcases his talent for capturing the beauty of everyday objects.
