The composition centers on a blue-and-white Delft bottle before a lobed pewter dish, with grapes, pears, a peach, and a green apple arranged on a pewter charger against a deep, dark ground. Warm ochres and olive tones are balanced by the cool cobalt of the ceramic and the soft metallic sheen of the dish. An indistinct signature is present.  \nLikely dating from the late 19th century, the painting remains in very good condition, with a gently aged surface and slightly mellowed varnish, while the frame shows timeworn wear with minor rubbing and small chips to the gilding.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIdeal for a kitchen or dining room, it sits beautifully above a sideboard or marble console, particularly alongside pewter or blue-and-white ceramics that echo its composition. Its restrained palette and soft light bring depth without weight, enriching the room in a subtle, lasting way. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 17¾\" high x 21¾\" wide x 1¼\" thick  \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 45cm high x 55cm wide x 3cm thick \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53313055359314,"sku":"24381","price":3295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC00970_95a923b5-a1f5-4a90-a422-f1570d7876e8.jpg?v=1777452580","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/late-19th-century-oil-on-panel-still-life-w-fruit-and-delft-bottle-173-4-x-213-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
