Still Life, Fruits 1908

Childe Hassam's "Still Life, Fruits" (1908) is an Impressionist painting that displays a still life arrangement of fruit and a glass vase, surrounded by foliage, in a unique triptych format. The central panel shows a bowl of fruit, including pears, peaches, and grapes, along with a glass vase. The side panels depict an outdoor scene with branches and leaves in a hazy, atmospheric style. The use of color and brushstrokes typical of Impressionism, with short, visible brushstrokes contributing to the overall sense of light and movement, creates a lively, vibrant depiction of the scene.
