This is a potential title for the painting. It has a certain ring to it I think - and a clear reference, of course, to Rossini's opera.
Today I worked on the poster apples trying to recreate the stylised painting style as well as the subtle wrinkles in the paper.
Again I spent around 1½ hours which seems to be about the maximum amount time I can do highly detailed work ( of any nature ) before I seriously start to lose concentration.
