About the piece
This exquisite 17th-century still life showcases a lavish arrangement of delicacies and fine objects. The composition meticulously renders the contrasting textures of a rugged crayfish shell, glistening oysters, translucent grapes, and a delicate Wan-li porcelain bowl, all unified by the dramatic, soft lighting characteristic of the period.
