About the piece
This 1634 masterpiece by Willem Claesz. Heda exemplifies the 'ontbijtje' or breakfast still life of the Haarlem school. The composition showcases Heda's incredible ability to render different textures and the play of light across reflective surfaces, from the glint of the silver tazza to the translucent lemon peel.
