Dish of Apples — Fine Art

Dish of Apples shows fruit in a shallow dish set on a table. Paul Cézanne builds the bowl and the apples with short separate brush strokes. The colours stay close to one another, with reds and yellows lifted against a darker ground.

The fine art print goes on a wall where the room is calm. A light frame on a dark wall lets the fruit stand apart. A dark frame on a pale wall keeps the apples from feeling lost. The matte paper holds the tones without a shine under a lamp.

It fits a dining room wall that sits near the table. From the doorway you see the dish first, then the fruit colours. Sitting at the table you notice the marks on each apple before you notice the outlines.
