Mesa con Frutas 1962

"Mesa con Frutas" (Table with Fruits) is a 1962 still life oil painting by Colombian artist Enrique Grau. The painting depicts a simple scene of a table covered in a red and white checkered tablecloth with a variety of fruits, including watermelon, papaya, and what appears to be mango. The realistic depiction of these fruits emphasizes the simplicity of the scene and the beauty of everyday objects. Grau's signature style is evident in the painting's focus on light and shadow, which creates a sense of depth and volume. "Mesa con Frutas" is a prime example of Grau's artistic journey, which saw him exploring the relationship between still life, realism, and modernism.
