Veering away from the bright, pastel blues and pinks, this work  possesses a more somber air — although, certain similarities in his choice of palette remain evident.  Done in very thick  applications of paint, the coarse-surfaced composition comes to life with more of a realist tone than usual, while still bearing the essence of planar cubism.  The gloom in the work is atypical of Tabuena’s still lifes, but the grace by which he executes the composition exudes a familiar quality that flaunts his masterful hand and keen eye.","lot_group":"PAINTING","lot_details_html":"<p><strong>Romeo Tabuena</strong> (1921-2015)<br /><em>Fruits and Bottle</em><br />signed and dated 1967 (upper left)<br />oil on board<br />27&rdquo; x 38&rdquo; (69 cm x 97 cm)</p>","alias":null,"hp":650000,"bp":0.168,"isWithdrawn":0,"accounting_hp":650000,"userBid":null,"isPaid":0,"userId":22,"lot_status":"SOLD","isDone":1,"bid_history_id":null,"reserve_price":null,"hammer_price":759200,"fav":0},"image":[{"id":38595,"img_url":"https://leongallery.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/v2/auction/61/89/lot/144.jpg","isFeatured":1}]},"increment":[450000,500000,550000,600000,650000,700000,750000,800000,900000,1000000,1100000,1200000,1300000,1400000,1500000,1600000,1700000,1800000,1900000,2000000,2200000,2400000,2600000,2800000,3000000,3200000,3400000,3600000,3800000,4000000,4200000,4400000,4600000,4800000,5000000,5500000,6000000,6500000,7000000,7500000,8000000,8500000,9000000,9500000,10000000,11000000,12000000,13000000,14000000,15000000,16000000,17000000,18000000,19000000,20000000],"prev":143,"next":145,"count_bid":0,"bid_history":[],"tokenExpired":1}
