About the piece
Painted in 1916 by Emile Alexay, this oil on canvas explores the subtle textures of glass and fabric. The luminous transparency of the bottles contrasts sharply with the deep, atmospheric background, creating a sense of quiet introspection. The work is a masterclass in tonal control and the rendering of light through glass, making it a timeless addition to any space.
