About the piece

Painted in 1858 by Severin Roesen, this oil on canvas work exemplifies the mid-19th-century American taste for opulent still lifes. The composition features a meticulously detailed array of fruit arranged on a tiered stone ledge, showcasing Roesen's mastery of light, texture, and translucency. The inclusion of a delicate glass of water and perfectly rendered dew drops adds a sense of freshness and technical brilliance to the scene.
