About the piece

Painted in 1663 by Willem Kalf, this exquisite still life is a pinnacle of the Dutch 'pronkstilleven' (ostentatious still life) tradition. The composition showcases the artist's legendary skill in capturing light as it glints off an ornate silver-gilt goblet, reflects in the glaze of a Wanli porcelain bowl, and illuminates the textured skin of citrus fruit against a profound, atmospheric background.
