About this work
The appreciation of everyday objects was reinforced by the ever-increasing role that realism began to play in 17th-century art. Glass, porcelain, silver, the texture of fruit, dead animals, hanging or lying on a table: all of these elements were readily found in domestic surroundings and represented a veritable challenge by means of which painters could convince the public of their artistic merits.
