"Goldberry (Physalis) opens up" is a macro photo of a Goldberry (also called pineapple cherry or Physalis peruviana) in which the sheath has dried partially opened up. This allows you to see the beautiful vein structure (partly enhanced by the lighting).
This Goldberry lies on a ground with a distinct structure in it, giving the reflection of the Goldberry an abstract painterly appearance.
The back and ground have a dark blue colour, which is partly blended due to the texture. If you zoom in on the work, this is easy to see.
A small part of the orange berry hidden in the casing can be seen. This one is still beautifully intact and has not yet dried out, giving you a nice contrast between the casing and the berry. But a greater contrast is created by the colour combination of blue background and brown - orange Goldberry. This makes the Goldberry stand out nicely.
This work could hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the dining room or kitchen. Also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a restaurant, café, waiting room or practice room!
