Still Life of Fruit by Francisco Dosamantes, oil on canvas, circa 1937. Francisco Dosamantes (1911–1986) was a Mexican painter and muralist associated with the post-Revolutionary Mexican art movement. A student of Diego Rivera and a member of the Liga de Escritores y Artistas Revolucionarios (LEAR), his work often reflected social themes, but he also produced refined easel paintings that highlight strong composition and form. This still life is a quieter, more intimate example of his work, featuring a carefully arranged grouping of green bananas, apples, and limes. The simplified shapes and soft, blended tones give the piece a calm, almost sculptural presence, while maintaining a distinctly Mexican sensibility. A balanced and thoughtful composition that shows Dosamantes’ versatility beyond muralism. Acquired from a private collector, this piece has been professionally restored and cleaned, remounted, and presented in the gilded frame shown. Art measures 29" x 40", in frame 33.5" x 44"
