    Yes! This piece definitely has an Old World look. Very Masterful!

    And those cherries look luscious.

    Thank you, Diana! It was fun reverting back to what I refer to as an Old World look, as I'd been trying to move into a more contemporary appearance. I'm so accustomed to the classical style of deeper shadows and darker tones, particularly reds, that it was comforting to paint this one. Thanks again, Jeanne
