About the piece
Painted around 1669 by Abraham Mignon, this masterpiece exemplifies the height of Dutch Golden Age still life. The composition features a rich array of textures—from the glisten of fresh oysters and burst pomegranates to the soft sheen of green velvet and translucent glassware—all rendered with remarkable precision and dramatic chiaroscuro.
