Private collection, France (acquired as a gift directly from the artist)

This painting belongs to the series "natures mortes mystiques", generally small in format, produced by the artist between 1928 and 1931 on found supports such as scraps of canvas, cardboard, or cut-down panels. Fruits and humble studio objects are elevated to the status of icons.
