Description: Item/Description: Signed oil on canvas. Trompe l'oeil painting (French: �deceive the eye") still life painting, by Italian artist, Alfredo Serri (1898 -1972). The work with its 3-dimensional effect evokes a sense of haste and interruption as it depicts a table covered by a haphazardly folded cloth with a water carafe, glass and half eaten roll of bread. The image of the saint on the wall, a picture within a picture, a surreal quality to the work. Artist signed lower right: A. Serri.
