Still Life, Roses and Apples 

Samuel Peploe's "Still Life, Roses and Apples" is a vibrant and expressive still life painting, capturing the essence of everyday objects. The artist employs bold brushstrokes and a rich palette, emphasizing the form and texture of the roses, apples, and vase. The composition is dynamic, with the flowers reaching towards the viewer and the apples resting on a seemingly casual white cloth, conveying a sense of energy and life. Peploe's work is often associated with the Scottish Colourists movement, which drew inspiration from Post-Impressionism and Fauvism, and sought to express a more subjective and emotional interpretation of reality.
