Old-timey painter Eloise Harriet Stannard’s main interest was the still-life painting of fruits and flowers. During her life-time she produced many paintings illustrating regular and exotic fruits of Europe.
This oil-on-canvas painting from 1893 depicts, as we can see, some strawberries on a cabbage leaf. Maybe someone was trying sneaking them away from a farm.
Stannard’s detailed description stands out as we see the reflection on the strawberries and the veins of the cabbage leaf are very realistic. The artist has ever been revered for her keen sense of extensive illustrations.
Here we can raise the question about the organic food. Many countries now prefer organic foods against the inorganic fruits and vegetables due to the toxic elements indulged by the harmful chemical and pesticides used in the farming procedure.
Right now, I just want to reach out those strawberries and eat them up if I am not infiltrating the copyright laws.
