Gino GREGORI (1906–1973). Still Life with Apples on a Black Background, 1972. Oil on canvas, signed upper right, dated on the reverse (scratches and minute losses of paint along the edges). Height: 50 cm - Width: 61 cm Note: Gino Gregori’s still lifes are characterized by a simplification of forms, a structured organization of space, and a bold treatment of color and texture. He favors a synthetic interpretation of objects, going beyond their mere naturalistic representation.
