The “Still Life with Fruit with Wine Glass and Reineclauden” captivates with the virtuosity of the meticulous execution. All objects seem within reach and reflect their different textures in a perfect painterly manner. Be it the heavy, cool marble slab that contrasts with the soft surface of the peach and the cracked peel of the Reineclauden, as well as the fragility of the wine glass, in which the window cross of the painter’s studio is reflected.
