"A Taste of Mediterranean Tradition" is a "Trompe L'oeil" on the theme of Mediterranean cooking. Featuring a garlic bulb, a wooden mortar and pestle and a glass bottle of olive oil, the composition is arranged within a shallow, blue-painted box or niche that frames the objects and provides depth. The warm, earthy tones of the ingredients stand out against the cooler blue backdrop, and the visible brushstrokes add texture and dimension to the image. The play of light and shadow creates a sense of warmth and cosiness, making it a perfect addition to any kitchen or dining space.
This artwork is a beautiful celebration of Mediterranean tradition and the simple, yet essential, elements that contribute to its rich culinary heritage.
