DESCRIPTION: Signed R. Fernandez and dated 1988, this striking modernist still life presents a dynamic composition of abstracted forms rendered in a bold, expressive palette of crimson, violet, teal, and ochre. The artist deconstructs traditional still life elements—vessel, fruit, drapery, and geometric volumes—into angular planes with subtle Cubist influence and painterly brushwork. Strong color contrasts and rhythmic contours create depth and movement, while the composition maintains balance through carefully orchestrated diagonals. Executed in oil on canvas and housed in its original vintage frame, the painting reflects late 20th-century modernist experimentation and decorative appeal. A compelling collector’s piece with vibrant presence.
