Description
Ali Grant's bronze is not just a simple reminder of the days of Spitalfields market, and markets in general: A Pear and a Fig is a still life, the fruits of which are shown ripe and ready to eat. The fabric and the block create the composition; these fruits are not casual windfalls.
Artists have depicted still-lifes sinces the time of the Romans, as a celebration and a reminder of the opulence that came with commerce.
