The artwork, titled “Kitchen Table,” was created by Fernando Botero in 1967. It belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and is categorized as a still life.
In the artwork, Botero presents a composition of everyday objects meticulously arranged on a kitchen table. The objects include a cabbage, two white onions, a bundle of green onions, a yellow pear, and two white pears. They rest on a surface covered with a white cloth, against a backdrop that has a soft, brownish tone. Each item is rendered with remarkable attention to detail, showcasing Botero’s signature style of exaggerated forms and smooth, rounded shapes. The overall effect is one of harmony and balance, capturing the simplicity and beauty of ordinary kitchen items in a serene and almost sculptural manner.
