Preserved Peaches 1975

Janet Fish is known for her meticulous depictions of everyday objects and still lifes, and “Preserved Peaches” is a prime example of this style. Created in 1975, the print features two glass jars, one containing preserved peaches, the other empty, with the artist using bold lines and vibrant colors to depict the textures and reflections of the glass and the translucent peach slices inside. The work captures a sense of domesticity and the simple beauty of ordinary objects, as well as Fish’s masterful technique.
