The Still Life in Front of Cross on Top of the Mountain 1912 by Andre Derain — Fine Art

The Still Life in Front of Cross on Top of the Mountain 1912 puts a few objects on a table against a backdrop that reaches toward a hill top. A cross stands above the scene. Solid colour blocks and thick strokes carry the picture, in the manner of Andre Derain.

You get the fine art print with a hanger already on the back. A metal hanger is fitted to the back and goes straight onto a nail or screw. No separate frame is needed.

In a dining room, the work fits above a sideboard across the room. You notice the cross first, then the tabletop objects below it. From the kitchen doorway the broad colour areas read as one block, while the table line breaks the lower edge.
