Antique Oil on Canvas Still Life Painting

A small antique oil on canvas still life painting depicting three pears arranged in a gentle arc. Painted against a soft mauve, gentle lavender, and warm pink background, atop a sage green counter, the colours create atmospheric depth brought to life by the rich brushstrokes and unusual red and green tones within the pears. The loose, confident brushwork and unexpected colour notes produce a warm and vibrant artwork, where perception and mood are prioritised over exact representation. Signed and dated Rodriguez, 1917.
