Notes from Kloss, William, et al. Art in the White House: A Nation's Pride. Washington, D.C.: The White House Historical Association, 2008: " . . . [A] complex and abundant array of white and red grapes, peaches, pears, and apples is spread across a gray table top and overflows a white porcelain basket. The composition is divided into fruit on the table top and fruit in the basket. These two parts are unified by their overlap and by an implicit diagonal from lower left to upper right. The fruit basket is filled with peaches capped by white grapes. The peaches are pale yellow and red and one of them is dominant by virtue of being shown whole and seeming to balance on the rim of the basket. The artist placed this bright, poised peach directly above a cartouche on the basket, upon which he signed and dated the painting, an unusual touch. The porcelain basket, emulating wicker fruit baskets, was made in China (apparently inspired by German Meissen examples) for export to America. It was therefore an article of some luxury, and its crisp, elegant design contrasts with the ripe piles of fruit gathered from an American orchard. It was fruits such as these that preoccupied James Peale as still life subject matter." |
