About this motif
Fruit still lifes are among the oldest subjects in painting and were already depicted in Roman wall paintings. They celebrate colours, shapes and enjoyment.
Sommer's etching "Bowl of Fruit" shows a shallow bowl with a meander band, filled with melon, bananas, grapes, pineapple and apples. Image about 5 x 7 cm on a 13 x 18 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
