With its dynamic composition and lively colors, this still life seems anything but still. Foreground and background merge, and objects jostle for space, as drapery obscures the central motif. Ginger jars were popular home decorations in 19th-century Europe, and—like this one—they tended to feature shades of blue. Cézanne included the objects in several paintings, often alongside a similar selection of fruit.
