Fine Still Life Fruit English School, Early 20th Century Oil painting on board, framed Dated '1902' on the lower right corner Framed size: 25 x 22 inches Lovely details especially to the vase, to which there is a beautiful flower motif on the front. The fruit, basket and wooden table are painted in exceptionally fine detail, to the highest standard. This is a classic portrayal of still life. With origins in the Middle Ages and Ancient Greco-Roman art, still-life painting emerged as a distinct genre and professional specialisation in Western painting by the late 16th century, and has remained significant since then.

Condition report: The painting and frame are both in good condition.
