Still Life with Peaches — Renoir, 1882, Art Postcard

Pierre-Auguste Renoir painted Still Life with Peaches in 1882, one year after the fruit-and-grape table pieces of 1881 — and this time the eye is on a single fruit. A porcelain plate holds ripe peaches on a draped cloth, with one peach set apart, against a warm red-and-yellow ground. As a postcard, the image is small enough to be kind to a kitchen calendar and serious enough for a still-life collector. Pairs well with the 1881 fruit cards already in the collection.
