About the piece

Painted in 1916 during Diego Rivera's European period, this work demonstrates his masterful engagement with Cubist principles. The composition deconstructs a traditional still life into a vibrant arrangement of overlapping planes, earth tones, and sharp highlights, offering a fascinating glimpse into the early career of the Mexican muralist.
