Mexican Still Life by Helen Winograd

We look at what appears to be a table, many different items rest on its surface. Towards the bottom right corner there is half of a block of cheese that is hidden through the strokes of the table. Moving further up into the middle ground, there is a pear standing on a blue piece of cloth and towards it right side there is clay pot resting on a red piece of cloth with strips. The pot has a dove resting on an olive branch. Behind these two objects, there is an orange hidden behind the pear and a flower pot with numerous Canna Lilies. The plant seems fatigued by the lack of space in the frame. Most of the objects presented in this piece are juxtaposed by its surrounding as these natural objects are constrained by their surroundings.
