About the piece
Painted around 1633, this work by Francisco de Zurbarán is a quintessential example of the Spanish Baroque still life tradition. The artist employs dramatic chiaroscuro to give the quinces a monumental, sculptural presence, highlighting their waxy texture against the intense, dark background and the reflective surface of the silver plate.
