About the piece
Created in 1775, this masterful still life by French artist Anne Vallayer-Coster demonstrates her extraordinary talent for rendering textures and light. A golden, crusty brioche sits alongside a basket of velvet-skinned peaches and a bunch of crisp radishes, all arranged on a weathered stone ledge that emerges from a deep, atmospheric shadow.
