Fish Lamp

A striking mixed media oil painting by Caroline de Rothschild that masterfully explores light and domestic stillness. The composition centres on a luminous orange lamp suspended above a white base, featuring a pattern with fish. Its glow illuminates an artfully arranged table laden with, seasonal produce, and delicate florals. Layered elements—a silver plate of shallots and red onions, a fruit bowl brimming with citrus, a modest white vase holding orange and purple blooms, and flickering pillar candles—create a narrative of quiet abundance. 

The artist's sophisticated palette of verdant greens, enriched by the interplay of lamplight and candlelight casting softer tones across the background wall, demonstrates a refined understanding of colour harmony and atmospheric depth. A contemplative work that elevates the ordinary still life into something profoundly engaging.
