Description: | s. on canvas b. l. "Peploe"; label on verso "Still Life / oil painting / by / S. J. peploe / Alex. Reid & Lefevre, Ltd / dealers in Works of Art / 117-121 West George Street / Glasgow, C. "" CRE PEPLOE, Samuel John; (Scottish; 1871-1935) Label: "The strident yellow background is unusual in Peploe?s work and is confined to a group of still lifes painted around 1912. Simplification of forms and removal of the illusion of depth allow Peploe to experiment with the suggestion of space through the juxtaposition of strong colours. The tulip, with its striking simplicity, strong colours and long stem that would curve a little more everyday, was a favourite subject." | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | SCOTTISH COLOURIST : STILL LIFE : TULIP : VASE : COMPORT : FRUIT : SAUCER : CAMPUS : PRINCIPAL LODGING : GEORGE SMITH GIFT/BEQUEST : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
