Description

The enticing painting of a female figure life drawing that's been painted with a halo hat in blue holding a bowl of lemons and stacking the citrus fruit in the kitchen as a still life of lemons on the table next to a footed pedestal of more lemons in blue and yellow seated at table is an intriguing piece of art to look at. There is multiple meanings that can be interpreted of this figurative artwork. The woman symbolize freedom because she's semi nude and open the way we should be , yet not showing her intimate parts which means the viewer has a chance to have some privacy when looking at this art because it's in a room with other people around it who don't see you. The central hub of the household is where the woman's force remains, while she holds the lemons on top of each other and stacking them neatly is a symbol of how she should do everything like a civilized person would do things.

But roiling underneath is an individual sense of self. She is the centerpiece of this painting since she's seated right at the center of the painting while everyone else is not visible, but understood to be there. While this seems to be a non-important issue, the idea that society dictates the individual goes beyond the surface and into the subliminal spaces that tie humanity together. The lemons dictate that we are a part of nature while the tablecloth is symbolic of how humans have become civilized, but nature still remains and can be found in any environment, even though humans try to separate themselves from the rest of nature. The alluring fragrance wafts up to our nose as we watch the woman stacking lemons in front of her and into her two bowls. This reminds us that we are human by breathing the air and being exposed to the world, but we also need to remain in check because if we lose control, then the rest of the world will lose their minds and the woman will end up in trouble, while the lemons remain stacked and neat.

It's a conundrum of style. But the figure in blues and yellow highlight each other and capture the essence of the lemony citrus. She is seated instead of standing at the table, and that helps us understand that she is weary and tired. Her posture shows her exhaustion and the fact that she is seated and resting. The table she is sitting at is round and has a pedestal for more lemons on top of it to symbolize how she is the most important element of the household.But to whom? And how can she capture that in a way that helps her navigate life. The blue halo around her head reminds us of the idea that there is someone up above who watches over her, but not directly; which reminds us to watch out for what we do with our lives so we don't get into trouble. While we can look at this art painting and be mesmerized by its colors, it takes some time to find meaning. But when we are able to decipher this, we can take the message and use it as a guide to how we live our lives. Enjoy!
