Still Life with Corn and Tomatoes
1921
Paul Sérusier, a founding member of the Nabis group, traded Parisian cafes for the countryside, and you can taste that rustic simplicity in this 1921 still life. The bold, almost cartoon-like shapes of the corn stalks and bright red tomatoes sit against a warm, golden background, showing his love for flat colors over realistic depth. It’s like a visual hug from the French countryside, proving that sometimes a simple jug of corn is all you need to make a masterpiece.
