Scott coupled a fascination with still-life painting with an unusual ability to capture spatial tension through the juxtaposition of simplified, everyday objects. Though he was essentially indifferent to the function of these items, he was acutely aware of their place in the still-life tradition. He also possessed a keen eye for colour, as demonstrated by this work, which relies heavily for its impact on the contrast between the blues of the background and the vibrant yellow of the lemons. This contrast complements the interplay between the various elements and shapes of the composition.
