Pear, Lemon, Egg
A lush and intimate still life rendered in Donald Sultan's characteristically bold yet refined style, this watercolor presents three iconic forms—a pear, a lemon, and an egg—with a striking simplicity that elevates the everyday into the monumental. Sultan's mastery of the medium is evident in the rich pooling and layering of pigment on the textured Arches paper, creating deep, luminous shadows that anchor the objects with a quiet, sculptural weight. The work reflects Sultan's ongoing fascination with elemental shapes and the tension between representation and abstraction.
