Still Life in Lamplight
Artist: Gillies, William George, Sir, CBE RA RSA PPRSW · 1898-1973
The palette is low-key and muted and the setting a little awkward to unravel in terms of chair and stool or side table and stool. The given title indicates this was a specific exercise in capturing a specific lighting effect.
The lamplight of the title is cast from the left edge.
The work was exhibited at the RSA Annual Exhibition in 1953.
