About the piece
Dating from approximately 1650, this anonymous 17th-century French still life employs a bold Tenebrist style to highlight its subjects against a deep, dark void. The luminous scales of the hanging fish and the detailed texture of the ram's fleece create a compelling, visceral presence typical of kitchen and market scenes from the Baroque era.
