"Still life of two lanterns together with blue background" is a macro photo of 2 lanterns of the lantern plant (Physalis) that have almost decayed. The lantern on the right still has part of its orange "skin" but it has already become so thin that you can clearly see the vein structure through it. (If you zoom in on this work, you can see this clearly).
The lantern on the left is already at a much further stage. The orange "skin" has already disappeared here and only a fragile structure remains. Through this vein structure, you can see the little berry of the lantern, even though it is also decaying, you can still see its orange colour, which returns beautifully in the right-hand lantern.
A still life, radiating something of love and tenderness. But the background colour gives it something very cheerful and rich in contrast.
This work could hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the bedroom, study, hallway or simply above the sofa! (Also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a conference room, office waiting room or practice room!)
