Artist's Description

piled up as they are in a pose
in sleeping
in a unified harmony,
enter into magnificent music.
Each one's deepest place having been reached into,
cores leisurely lay themselves down.
From the poem Still Life by Minoru Yoshioka
Perdix, "Lord of the Pear Trees", was one of Athens most sacred kings, when he was cast into the sea to die, his goddess, Athena, carried him to heaven, in the form of a Partridge from whence came A Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Great still life! Pears are my favorite I like them in ART (and in brandy :)) V
William Fields replied:
Thanks Elena, wish I could share some of these with you. They are a wonderful variety. I don't know for sure what they are but unlike many pears, they hold their firmness while being sweet and juicy. A definite treat. Can't seem to get enough of them. I'll be sorry when they're gone. Brandy is good

Nicely posed by your models & what an informative side bar William, V/F.
William Fields replied:
