About the piece
This exquisite 1750 composition by Jan van Os is a classic example of the Dutch 'pronkstilleven' (ostentatious still life). The work captures an impossible abundance of nature, stacking delicate roses and hollyhocks alongside exotic pineapples, heavy clusters of grapes, and a split pomegranate. Resting on a classical stone ledge, the scene is further animated by a bird's nest with eggs and a small, foraging mouse, showcasing the period's obsession with life, decay, and meticulous observation.
