Modern and Contemporary Art Still Life 1942 Juan Soriano, Mexican, 1920 - 2006 Oil on canvas 19 5/8 x 27 5/8 inches (49.8 x 70.2 cm) * Gallery 181, Modern and Contemporary Art, first floor 1951-120-4 Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph J. Gersten, 1951 |
Gallery LabelWith its variegated shades of red and pink, this work testifies to Soriano's keen interest in traditional still life, especially as practiced by such nineteenth-century Mexican painters as Agustín Arrieta (1803-1874) and Hermenegildo Bustos (1832-1907).* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |
