Cubist Still Life Oil Painting

This is a cubist-inspired oil painting on canvas, depicting a still life composition within what appears to be an interior setting. The color palette is rich with greens, blues, yellows, and browns, with strong black outlines defining shapes and creating a stained-glass like effect. The objects depicted include a stringed musical instrument resembling a mandolin or lute, a bowl overflowing with fruit (likely grapes, apples, and possibly lemons), several drinking glasses, what appears to be a melon or squash, and a plate with what looks like a few dice or small, square objects. In the background, there are suggestions of bottles and geometric patterns. The brushstrokes are visible and textured, indicating a generous application of paint. The overall style suggests a mid-20th century origin, possibly 1950s-1970s, characteristic of a post-cubist modernist approach. The painting is housed in a simple, light-colored wooden frame with a subtle textured or linen-like finish, which appears to be in good condition. There are no immediate visible signs of significant damage such as tears, cracks, or flaking paint from the visible angles. The frame appears clean and intact, suggesting it has been well-preserved. There are no discernible artist's signatures or maker's marks visible in the provided image.
