About the piece

Painted around 1680 by Abraham van Calraet, this Dutch Golden Age still life is a masterclass in chiaroscuro. The composition focuses on the tactile contrast between the soft, velvety skin of peaches and the translucent glow of grapes, all grounded by a draped white linen. Small details, like the delicate butterflies and the heavy, carved table, lend a sense of refined opulence and classical heritage to the piece.
