Still life with lemons, oysters, grapes, and butterflies on a plinth - Cornelis de Heem
The richness of a banquet in chiaroscuro: Still Life with Lemons, Oysters, Grapes, and Butterflies on a Pedestal
The composition imposes a subtle balance between abundance and delicacy: vibrant lemons, nacreous oysters, bunches of grapes, and butterflies resting on a pedestal respond to each other in a warm and subtle palette. The precise brushwork reveals a fine mastery of textures — the rough bark, the shiny flesh, and the diaphanous wings capture light realistically. The atmosphere, both opulent and intimate, invites meditative contemplation. This art print of Still Life with Lemons, Oysters, Grapes, and Butterflies on a Pedestal faithfully reproduces the chromatic harmony and pictorial depth of the original.
