More about this artwork
The painting "Still Life With A Book, A Glass And A Bottle" by Vilhelm Lundstrøm showcases a minimalistic yet expressive approach to the classic still life genre. At first glance, the composition is quite simple, featuring a few everyday objects placed on a flat surface. However, Lundstrøm's treatment of color and form adds depth and intrigue to the scene.The canvas is divided into a background with a muted blue tone, which subtly shifts in hue across the surface, creating a sense of depth and space. Dominating the foreground is an open book, painted in pale blue with a thick, dark outline that suggests volume and weight. This book lies in the lower center, hinting at intellectual or reflective undertones, perhaps as a symbol of leisure or study.To the left of the painting stands a large, dark bottle, rendered almost entirely in black, giving it a solid, opaque appearance. The simplicity of its form contrasts with the more detailed rendering of the book, and its verticality balances the horizontal spread of the book.On the right side is a glass, depicted with a dark outline that defines its shape, seated on a darker-toned surface. The glass contains a greenish liquid, which captures light and seems almost luminescent against the surrounding darker tones.
