Marsden Hartley, Still Life: Peaches and One Pomegranate, 1927, graphite on off-white wove paper, 24 5/16 in. x 18 3/4 in. ( cm x cm), Marsden Hartley, the Maine-born modernist closely associated with the circle of friends around Alfred Stieglitz in New York, lived an itinerant life that brought him in contact with diverging artistic inspirations. The ponderous 'Still Life: Peaches and One Pomegranate' is a marked departure from many of Hartley's earlier, expressionist works. During the 1920s, he traveled to Aix-en-Provence, France, where he immersed himself in the works of Cezanne

The ponderous 'Still Life: Peaches and One Pomegranate' is a marked departure from many of Hartley's earlier, expressionist works. During the 1920s, he traveled to Aix-en-Provence, France, where he immersed himself in the works of Cezanne and produced multiple drawings of still lifes and landscapes that privileged simplicity of form and investigated spatial relations.
