About this motif
Tropical fruits such as pineapples and bananas used to be precious rarities and were seen as a sign of prosperity. Today they add colourful accents to still lifes.
Sommer's companion piece KVCF-184 shows a woven basket with pineapple, grapes, citrus fruit and bananas, arranged slightly differently. Image about 12 x 16 cm on a 26 x 37 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
