About the piece
Painted in 1824, François Cornelis Knoll’s 'Still Life in a Stable' offers a glimpse into early 19th-century rural life. The composition features an array of textures—woven baskets, worn leather, and the luminous glow of a large green glass jug—all rendered with meticulous detail against the dark, earthy tones of a wooden barn. This atmospheric work elevates humble domestic tools into a compelling study of light and material.
