EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bustling fruit stall in the early 17th century. Painted by Frans Snyders or Snijders, this masterpiece titled "Fruit Stall, 1618-21" showcases an array of vibrant fruits and other intriguing elements. The sheer size of the painting, measuring at 206x342 cm, allows for every intricate detail to be admired. The composition is filled with luscious pomegranates, succulent grapes, and a variety of exotic fruits that would have been considered luxuries during that time period. A peasant woman stands proudly behind the stall, her weathered hands expertly arranging fir cones and artichokes alongside juicy lemons and plump cherries. An unexpected addition to this scene is a mischievous monkey perched on top of a wooden crate. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings each element to life - from the rough texture of melons to the velvety skin of peaches. This painting not only celebrates nature's bounty but also provides insight into daily life during this era. Displayed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this Flemish artwork continues to captivate viewers with its rich colors and masterful technique. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this piece through their print reproduction service offered by Fine Art Finder. It serves as a reminder that art can transport us back in time while still resonating with contemporary audiences today.
