'Mandarin Pears'

18 inches x 30 inches
oil on canvas
​framed


$5260

I had a fun time imagining the abundance of pears pouring forth from this wide and gracious bowl. Looking closely, you'll see how the shape of the fruits is echoed in the motif along the edge of the ceramic bowl. In Chinese custom, the pear represents eternal life; while the Christian understanding of the pear tree is the love of Christ. You are sure to find that there will never be a dull moment with this painting in your space! The bold, lucky red and pops of gold medallions will keep you coming back to this exciting and invigorating piece.
