'cestas De Frutas' (basket Of Fruit) Oil On Canvas 55x46 Cm Signed Ignacio Besga

'Cestas de Frutas' (Fruit basket) Oil on canvas signed Ignacio Besga

While waiting for the return of beautiful days, what better than a fruity still life?

Creation of the Spanish artist Ignacio Besga in the 1990s, this painter residing in Madrid is known for his modern works on classical themes, as here, this still life 'Cestas de Frutas' (in French: Basket of fruit).

One feels the Spanish influence in this painting, whether through the ceramic jug in blue stoneware, painted with floral patterns from popular art in Spain. Fruits are emblematic of Spanish culture: The peach (sweet, symbolizes sweetness) and the grape (symbol of life in many cultures) used for wine culture & its refined wines.. The only intruder in this canvas being garlic, which is not a fruit or a vegetable.. It represents strength, giving taste and pep to the dishes to which it is added.

Although modern, this oil on canvas retains the quality of a classic still life, with a much darker background than usual. The mastery of the turn of round fruits, notably grapes and garlic, is surprisingly detailed and complex. It is much more than a painting, it is a demonstration of the artist’s talents, between mastery of the play of shadow and light, the ability to paint spherical shapes, dimension and perspective. It will be perfect hung on the wall of a house loving buccolic themes.
