Vintage Folk Art Still Life Painting with Meat-like Melon Slices Signed J. Colville italian painting such that he needs toThis is not a great painting, but I love it in very large part because of that meat like melon (with those very pork chop looking slices) which gives the whole thing a Cham Soutine sort of flavor in addition to lending it a certain eroticism!

A perfect one for hanging amid a salon style wall of still life paintings, I'd say. 16 5 8" x 13 1 2" x
