Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

The 18th century was the golden age of still life, especially in Northern Europe (but also in Italy and Spain).

There was considerable demand for this type of painting, mainly from a new audience of middle-class buyers.

The sharp increase in demand encouraged a process of specialization, with the identification of "subgenres" linked to the predominant content of the paintings and to specific names.

Artists therefore specialized in creating still lifes whose theme was food, or flowers, or musical instruments and other objects that constituted a particular type of still life, called vanitas (a theme that they often allude to in still lifes in general).

Our work depicting a still life of fruit with a silver tankard in the center.

Some technical characteristics are visible in the work, in particular the wide range of colors that are inserted into the play of transparencies, giving rise to chiaroscuro and reflections.

The artist contrasts brightness and chromatic innovations with the dark world of the time, alternating virtuosity and interlacing both stylistic and chromatic.
