About the piece

Created in 1880, this early work by Belgian artist Théo van Rysselberghe showcases a traditional approach to the still life genre before his turn to Pointillism. The composition features textured quinces and translucent grapes emerging from a deep, shadow-heavy background, capturing a sense of quiet abundance and old-world elegance through masterful chiaroscuro.
