About the piece

Painted in 1897 by Brazilian artist Pedro Alexandrino Borges, this masterful still life exemplifies the rich textures and dramatic chiaroscuro of late 19th-century academic painting. The composition highlights a variety of tabletop elements—including a warm copper vessel, a reflective silver pitcher, and clusters of grapes and peaches—all illuminated against a deep, atmospheric background.
