Textures, sheen, reflections, colour – all are rendered very simply in this work. A pewter stein is high lighted along with fresh green asparagus and a battered pewter plate as a backdrop. The string in the original setup was white, but the asparagus was calling out for a dash of red. This painting recalls a time when come dusk there was no light other than illumination from candles.
