Original Description
"Persimmon by Eleonora, Tama Ragusa" is a captivating contemporary oil painting that masterfully blends elements of post-impressionist brushwork with modern still life sensibilities. The artwork presents a luminous arrangement of ripe persimmons against a warm, textured background, their orange-gold hues glowing like miniature suns. Ragusa’s signature style—seen in her Mediterranean-inspired still lifes—shines through in the deliberate impasto strokes that create a tactile, almost edible quality. Painted in the early 2010s during the artist’s Sicilian period, this work represents a mature phase where her fascination with light’s interaction with organic forms reached its zenith. Art historians recognize it as part of Ragusa’s "Fruit Sonata" series, which recontextualized traditional vanitas painting through a contemporary lens, earning critical acclaim in the 2013 Venice Biennale’s collateral events.
For interior spaces, "Persimmon" brings unparalleled vibrancy to minimalist kitchens or sunlit dining areas, where its rich ochres and burnt sienna tones complement natural wood furnishings or terracotta accents. The ideal hanging height aligns the central persimmon cluster at eye level (approximately 57-60 inches from floor), allowing its warm palette to activate neutral walls in offices or living rooms. A 24×30 inch canvas suits medium-sized spaces, creating a focal point without overwhelming; pair it with matte black frames to intensify color saturation. In modernist settings, position it alongside curved furniture or handmade ceramics to echo its organic forms, while corporate spaces benefit from its energy-boosting colors near reception areas. The painting’s inherent warmth balances cool gray or navy wall colors exceptionally well, making it versatile for both residential and commercial interior schemes.
