About the piece
Attributed to the Pensionante del Saraceni, this circa 1615 oil painting exemplifies the Caravaggesque influence on early 17th-century still life. The composition features a meticulously rendered glass carafe alongside a variety of fruits—including a vibrant sliced watermelon and pomegranates—all emerging from deep shadows into a sharp, directional light.
