Description

A poblano pepper, the primary subject of the still life, lays horizontally across the top of an inverted, clear glass cup. The pepper is dark green and shiny, with a curved stem that curls slightly to the left. The cup, with its ribbed design on the base and smooth, elongated stem, adds height to the composition. A second poblano pepper sits at the bottom left. A third, cut pepper is in the bottom right. The background is a solid, neutral grey that keeps the focus on the food and glass combination. Soft, diffused lighting provides a smooth gradient across the pepper. The overall aesthetic is simple.
