 Oil on canvas, 65x54 cm, signed on the reverse "KARS", exhibition label from the Kastel Gallery on the reverse. Framed. With an expert opinion by prof. PhDr. Tomáš Vlček, CSc. „\[...\] The still life is painted as a living tissue of dramatic opposites of brown and green tones. The arabesques of organic shapes of nature here in Kars`s painting recalls the influence of Paul Gauguin`s works. But at the same time it evokes in the dynamics of brushstrokes the motives and principles of French Fauvism, which Kars shared mainly with his contemporary André Derain.\[...\]“. Condition B/C.
