Object Description
“Red Apples” by Heidi Von Faber presents a striking still life, where simplicity meets refined realism, creating a deeply evocative image of the autumn harvest.
This original painting, executed in acrylics on linen, features a glass bottle filled with apple cider, its golden hue softly glowing in the light. Surrounding the bottle, a group of rich red apples is carefully arranged, their skins glistening with natural sheen. Each apple is painted with meticulous attention to detail, capturing the subtle play of light and shadow across their surfaces. A single apple, placed in the foreground, draws the viewer’s eye into the scene, while the others rest in a dark crate that anchors the composition against the black backdrop.
The warm light accentuates the earthy reds and soft yellows, creating a beautiful contrast against the velvety black background. The rustic wooden table on which the apples rest further enhances the autumnal feel of the piece, grounding it in a setting that evokes both simplicity and elegance.
Von Faber’s skill in hyperrealism shines in the careful rendering of textures, from the smooth glass of the bottle to the crisp skin of the apples. This captivating still life is framed and signed, making it an inviting addition to any space.
For collectors and enthusiasts alike, “Red Apples” is available for acquisition at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, offering a timeless celebration of nature captured in acrylics on linen.
