Writing in 1965 Terrence Mullany commented on Redpath's unique palette and handling of colour and tone: 'pinks and greys, mauve and lilacs are colours which she commands. Equally remarkable is Anne Redpath's use of white. I have now for several years lived with a large still-life by her which is in effect a study in white. It is a picture of beauty; handled with boldness, indeed bravura.' (T. Mullany, Anne Redpath Memorial Exhibition, exh.cat, 1965, p.3). These qualities could as easily be applied to the present work which is a magnificent example of Redpath's mastery of the still life.
