About the piece

Painted in 1679 by Flemish master David de Coninck, this dramatic still life displays an abundance of fruit—including split pomegranates, succulent peaches, and heavy clusters of grapes—arranged outdoors. The composition is anchored by a stone sarcophagus featuring a lion's head and a grand garden vase, set against a moody, atmospheric landscape. It represents the height of Baroque nature studies with its deep contrast and masterful handling of light.
