"A single plum a multiple purple."
The significance of the plum is not only in the way it stands out against the background, its the defining presence of how it reveals its sublime nature. The solitary still life gives a resonating amount of essence to the way you look at it on every angle, containing different movements to a definite unified center where the white sets off the core. Staring into the sides of the picture gives a deep sense of shadow that is often seen when looking at the far ends of the sun, for example. Without the contrast in the focal point, there is no distinction between the size and elements that make up its shape and form. As the closer you look at the picture the blue hues show a 'growing' phase to what seems to be a lightly aged fruit mingling in the depths of over ripened exhaustion. Overall the whole make-up of the still purple plum in its life, is the way it speaks to the visionary and how he/she delights in their imaginitive sense the taste of such a rich bite of wholesome representation.
