The cherry: beauty, softness, its heart-shaped plastic has inspired artists since Antiquity ...<br>The assigning of symbolic meanings to colors is probably as old as symbolism itself.<br>In fact, words are well adapted for description and the arousing of emotion, but for many kinds of precise thought other symbols are much better. (John B. S. Haldane)

Orchard harvest, 2000 José Escofet was born near Barcelona in 1930, and spent much of his early career working as a graphic designer whilst painting 'fine art' in his own time. He moved to England with his British wife in 1979. With a deep awareness of both Spanish and Dutch still-life and flower painting from earlier centuries, Escofet progressed from the late 1980's into a highly productive period painting impressively refined, sophisticated flower subjects of great richness.
