Paternal Harvest
Special Medium: Rust
30 in by 40 in
The painting by the First Filipino Rust Painter, Ramon H. Lopez, depicts a single father tenderly cradling his child in a serene rural setting. He wears a large-brimmed hat, sitting beside baskets filled with fruits—bananas, apples, mangoes—and green vegetables arranged on a wooden surface. The backdrop of rolling hills and a tranquil body of water enhances the peaceful, pastoral atmosphere. The use of bold colors and geometric forms, alongside the inclusion of familiar rural elements, symbolizes both the nurturing role of the father and the warmth of Filipino family life. The modern, abstract aesthetic gives the piece emotional depth while emphasizing the connection between tradition and personal experience.
