About this work
A domed silver coffee pot and a smaller silver creamer stand at the center of a table draped in a richly patterned blue cloth covered with pink, orange, red and teal flowers. Three lemons are scattered around the vessels, and the metal surfaces catch warped reflections of the pattern and a glimpse of the room beyond, including terracotta wall and blue drapery at upper left.
Paint is applied with tight, descriptive strokes that render the floral textile in saturated, decorative color, while the silver is built from cooler greys, blues and creams to suggest its polished, distorting surface. Even light picks out crisp highlights on the metal against the flattened pattern of the cloth, creating a lively contrast between pattern and quiet, reflective form.
