About the piece

Painted around 1728, 'The Silver Goblet' is a masterful example of Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin's ability to elevate everyday objects. The composition features the reflective surface of a silver cup contrasted against a dark glass carafe and the soft, textured skins of peaches and cherries on a weathered stone ledge.
