About

"Fruits sur le Pichet" (Fruits on the Pitcher) is an oil on canvas still life by Rene Genis depicting assorted fruit arranged on a shallow dish balanced atop a ceramic pitcher. Additional elements include a bowl, a cluster of grapes, and a framed panel set against a patterned background. Signed center right and titled on the verso. Presented in original wooden frame with silvered finish.

Rene Genis (1922–2004) was a French painter, printmaker, and illustrator associated with the Parisian Neo Figurative School and regarded as an important post-war interpreter of the still life tradition. Born in Hue (present-day Vietnam), he studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Bordeaux and later at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs in Paris under Albert Marquet and Marcel Gromaire. Closely associated with a generation of figurative painters that included Guy Bardone, Andre Brasilier, Bernard Cathelin, and Paul Guiramand, Genis developed a restrained pictorial language shaped by the legacy of French Poetic Realism.
