About the piece
Painted in 1858 by Adolphe-Félix Cals, this still life captures a rustic scene of kitchen ingredients with remarkable realism. The composition balances the vibrant greens of a large cabbage with the muted, textured tones of a plucked partridge and a classic pewter jug, all set against a neutral, painterly background that emphasizes the work's 19th-century heritage.
