Still Life with Fish

Amerikanische Malerei 1878–1884, 1882

In this painting, there is a large, pale fish near the bottom right corner, accompanied by smaller fish. Behind them, there is a polished brass pot, a dark brown bottle, and a copper jug with two handles. The color palette includes rich browns, bronzes, blacks, and cream whites, with light reflections creating highlights on the metallic objects. Most of the background is dark, and the pale fish are the main focal point.
