Deep, whimsical, and full of quiet wit, “Partridge with Pears” reimagines a room in Pompeii’s House of the Orchard—where stylized trees once bloomed against black walls and myth met nature. Inspired by the fresco of a central plum tree entwined with a snake, this piece takes creative liberty: replacing plums with glowing pears and adding a partridge, a frequent feature in Roman nature scenes.
The result is striking and fun. Radiant yellow pears glow against olive-toned foliage and a charcoal backdrop, while the lone bird offers both charm and symbolism.
