Nelly Trumel (1938-2018) - Still Life With Glass And Golden Grapes

Charming still life by French painter Nelly Trumel (1938-2018), an artist renowned for her delicate, timeless compositions.

This work can be placed between the 1980s and 1990s, as evidenced by the old annotations on the back mentioning prices in francs, typical of gallery sales prior to the switch to the euro.

The composition features a partially-filled stemmed glass, accompanied by a bunch of grapes in golden hues. The treatment of light is particularly successful, playing on the transparencies of the glass and the amber reflections of the liquid, contrasting with a deep dark background that enhances the scene.

The precise workmanship of the materials used in this piece is particularly impressive.

The precise workmanship of the materials, particularly the brilliance of the fruit and the delicacy of the glass, testifies to a mastered technique and a classical influence in the still-life tradition.
