Description
The composition depicts a simple yet expressive tabletop arrangement: a white plate holding several golden pears surrounded by rich, dark plums. A loosely draped white cloth adds texture and contrast, while the background is rendered in cool greenish tones, creating depth and atmosphere. The brushwork is bold and painterly, emphasizing form and color over fine detail, a style often associated with Russian post-impressionist and early modernist traditions.
The warm palette of yellows and purples contrasts beautifully with the muted backdrop, giving the fruit a luminous, almost tactile presence. The painting is housed in an ornate gilded frame with foliate carving, which enhances its decorative and classical appeal.
