DescriptionAt first glance, one doesn't pay much attention to whether the round, orange fruit in William's still lifes represent oranges or tangerines, but at the time of painting, it made a great difference to William and was often referenced in the title of the work when exhibited. Some of his original titles read: Florida Oranges, Catania Oranges, Mandarin Oranges, Pineapple Oranges, and Tangerine Oranges, to name a few.
