Artwork
Vaso con arance
Description
In this still life, the artist looks to Caravaggio's Basket of Fruit, constructing a composition with a vase, three oranges, two apples, and a lemon. The arrangement of the elements privileges the relationship between volume, light, and the silent presence of objects.
Notes on the work
The work connects the still-life genre to the Caravaggesque tradition, developing a pictorial reflection on the relationship between light, volume, and the perception of matter.
