The artist, recognized as President of the Jury of the Société Lyonnaise des Beaux-Arts, delivers here a composition of rare chromatic intensity. This work is framed in a beautiful old frame with a beautiful patina having suffered some of the ravages of time, we can see here and there small wear and small losses (see photo), which in no way detracts from its charm. The scene highlights a table laid on which are displayed a bowl of red and green apples, a pitcher with purple reflections, a glass of milk as well as a plate of pears and citrus fruits. The bright and contrasting colors - luminous greens, deep reds, intense purples and bright yellows - harmonize with subtlety, giving the whole a vibrant energy. The play of materials between the velvety pastel and the fluid gouache reinforces the volumes and creates a warm and intimate atmosphere, characteristic of the Lyon pictorial tradition while resonating with a timeless modernity.
