two tongues
Creating a similar yet simplified composition, including a second sloth and focusing on the aspic. The scene features two crystal pineapples, each with sloth faces and long, spindly tongues. These tongues extend towards a centrally placed aspic, made with an ornate mold, creating a focal point. The aspic is detailed and translucent, drawing attention with its intricate pattern. The two pineapples are positioned symmetrically on either side of the aspic, enhancing the composition's balance and symmetry. The background is a plain, slightly textured wall, emphasizing the subjects. Soft light from a north-facing window illuminates the scene, highlighting the interaction between the sloth tongues and the aspic. This composition removes the additional fruits, focusing solely on the pineapples, sloth faces, and aspic, resulting in a cleaner, more focused visual narrative that combines whimsy with classical still life elements.
