36. Still life with apple, knife and inkwell [1935-1937]

Pallady was a steady exponent of interior painting, with which he was familiar, and he would create in this spirit for most of the rest of his life. Thus, we find in his work approaches such as static scenes, genre scenes, portraits or nudes. With an always distinct prop, his compositions will always be in perfect balance, carefully established by the perfectionist artist. Although modest in nature, the objects of his props will be transfigured into a symphony of meanings, rhythms and colours, the real subject of an interior composition being his poetics, revealed through expressions, intensities and harmonies. An obvious balance can also be seen in the composition of forms and chromatics, based on laws that will govern the compositional relationships. Intimately involved in the technique of his craft, as well as in the architectural composition of composition, colour, rhythm and atmosphere, Pallady would be an original interpreter of the material. A favourite of oil, the artist will convert this material into temperate, faded and matte interpretations. With faithful frequency, still scenes will constitute a consistent part of his work, being among the genres that will be perfectly suited to his artistic spirit, thus giving him complete freedom in terms of the manner of construction and synthesis, as well as the creation of an ideal balance and order, which the artist had always had in mind.
