About the piece
Attributed to the circle of Juan Sánchez Cotán, this 'bodegón' is a quintessential example of Spanish Baroque realism. The artist utilizes dramatic Tenebrism to pull simple vegetables from a stark black void, highlighting the mathematical precision and organic textures of the cardoon and carrots resting in a trompe-l'oeil stone frame.
