Pear, Lemon, Egg 1985

Donald Sultan's 1985 work, "Pear, Lemon, Egg," is a minimalist black and white drawing of three fruits rendered in stark silhouettes against a white background. The artist is known for his dramatic and simplified forms, which often depict objects from everyday life. This piece is a good example of his work, as it captures the essence of these fruits without depicting their detailed shapes or textures. Sultan's work evokes a sense of realism, while also inviting viewers to contemplate the relationship between form and representation.
