About the piece

Painted in 1636 by Pieter Claesz, this 'monochrome banquet' is a pinnacle of Dutch Golden Age still life painting. The composition balances a tall green roemer glass against a fallen silver tazza, showcasing Claesz's extraordinary ability to render diverse textures—from the glint of metal and the transparency of liquid to the rough crust of bread and the pith of a lemon.
