Description
This exquisite original oil on canvas by Bela Balogh is a masterful celebration of abundance and elegance, presented in the grand tradition of classical still life. The composition features a lavish arrangement of ripe fruits, juicy grapes, polished apples, and golden pears arranged in an ornate silver bowl at center stage. Nestled beneath this vibrant bounty is a creamy white tablecloth, gracefully draped over the edge of the table and framed by a luxurious light blue satin fabric that sets a soft, regal backdrop. Above the centerpiece, a lush bouquet of lilacs in hues of white, lavender, and dusty pink bursts into bloom, adding height and floral charm to the arrangement. On either side, gleaming golden goblets and a delicately detailed antique ewer balance the composition, enhancing its opulent, Old World aesthetic.
Bela Balogh's skill as a realist painter is evident in the meticulous attention to detail "” the subtle reflections on polished metal, the lifelike translucency of the grape skins, and the naturalistic textures of petals and leaves.
The painting is signed by the artist in the lower right corner and is presented in a stately rectangular gold frame that complements the traditional style and enhances the artwork's formal presence.
