About the piece
Created around 1614, this oil painting is a quintessential example of the Dutch 'ontbijtje' or breakfast still life. The composition masterfully balances textures—the cool translucence of the studded roemer glass, the soft bloom of the grapes, and the crisp folds of the white tablecloth—inviting the viewer into a moment of quiet, historical elegance characteristic of the Haarlem still life tradition.
