A Photo a Week Challenge : Still life (sort of)

Paul Cézanne said « Avec une pomme, je veux étonner Paris » (I want to surprise Paris with an apple) more than 100 years ago and realism on a sill life was seen as ordinary if no ingenuity was found on it. His drawings sometimes have déformation and it gives a sense of existence. A question is how to follow him with a still picture. Of course, I have no clear answer now and probably will not find it.

セザンヌは「りんごひとつでパリを驚かせたい。」と言ったらしいが、あの歪んだ静物画が圧倒的な存在感で今も世界を驚かせていることは間違いない。
