About the piece
Painted in 1882 by Philippe Rousseau, this masterful oil on panel captures a rich interior scene. The composition balances a heavy copper urn and delicate clusters of peaches and grapes with the sudden, exotic presence of a blue and yellow macaw. The open window allows a soft, diffused light to play across the textures of the fruit and the bird's feathers, creating a sophisticated atmosphere of old-world charm.
