Mirror Image is a superb example of Philip Gerrard’s refined approach to still life and his standing as an accomplished British Artist within the tradition of Contemporary British Art. The painting Read more
centres on a gleaming silver bowl surrounded by fruit, creating a striking interplay of reflection, colour and form.
Gerrard’s meticulous technique is immediately evident. The polished surface of the bowl captures subtle distortions of the surrounding oranges and plum, while the soft fall of light across the composition adds depth and quiet drama. This careful attention to texture and tonal harmony is characteristic of Gerrard’s work and a key reason his paintings resonate so strongly with collectors of British Art.
Although rooted in classical still life traditions, Mirror Image carries a distinctly contemporary clarity. Gerrard’s disciplined palette, precise draughtsmanship and ability to elevate everyday objects into elegant, contemplative arrangements place him firmly among the leading voices in British Contemporary Still Life.
