Fish & Lemon

19th-century French School oil on canvas attributed to M. France (19th century). The artwork is smooth to the touch.

This still life features fish and a lemon artfully placed on a tea towel. The piece is characterized by dark, subdued lighting that highlights only the essential elements. The skillful rendering of reflections on the fish's shiny skin serves as the focal point of light in the composition. The distinctive choice of lighting lends a unique, subjective dimension to this still life.
