About the piece
Painted in 1878 by Theodore Clement Steele, this masterful still life showcases a sophisticated arrangement of polished metal vessels and lush fruit. The work highlights the artist's ability to render contrasting surfaces—from the cool gleam of the silver urn to the soft rind of a sliced watermelon—against a muted, atmospheric background. It is a quintessential example of traditional American still-life painting.
