Untitled Still Life by Sevitt Francis
Oil on canvas, 24” x 30”

A quiet symphony of abundance—ripe grapes, candlelight, and florals bathed in soft windowlight. This untitled work by Sevitt Francis evokes a timeless elegance, where every object feels steeped in memory.

Francis, born in Dublin in 1942, is an Irish-Israeli painter known for her romantic, nostalgic scenes. A graduate of the Avni Institute of Fine Arts in Tel Aviv, her work often reflects Renaissance and Moorish influences, with rich textures and muted tones that whisper of gentler times. Her paintings have been exhibited across Europe, Israel, Canada, and the U.S., and are prized for their quiet sensuality and intricate detail from the layered textures of fabric and fruit to the subtle interplay of light and shadow. Her still lifes often feel like quiet stories unfolding in slow motion.
