Натюрморт с виноградом \ Still Life with Grapes

“Still Life with Grapes” (2026) is an elegant dry pastel on paper (30 50 cm), where the rich depth of blue and emerald grape tones harmonizes with a refined blue-and-white porcelain vase and decorative patterned background, evoking a sense of European charm and timeless classicism. This artwork was created after returning from a European trip. My husband and I wandered through flea markets, visited atmospheric cafs and charming old restaurants where time seems to slow down. There, I rediscovered my love for blue-and-white ceramics, aged textures, and the richness of ripe fruit displayed on antique tables.
In this still life, I wanted to combine European elegance with the warmth of home. Deep blue grapes, luminous green clusters, a decorative porcelain bowl, and ornamental tiles create a dialogue between classical aesthetics and refined realism.
This piece would beautifully complement a kitchen, dining room, living space, or an interior with classic, Provence, or eclectic elements. It brings color depth, sophistication, and a subtle feeling of travel into the space.
