EDITORS COMMENTS
This still life print, titled "Still Life with Cheese" by Floris Claesz. van Dyck, takes us back to the Dutch Golden Age in the 17th century. The scene showcases a beautifully set table adorned with an exquisite Haarlem damask tablecloth, highlighting the opulence of the era. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his choice of porcelain bowls and plates to present the sumptuous feast. Interestingly, we spot a little dish filled with olives that may be an early European imitation of Chinese porcelain, reflecting the fascination for Asian culture during this period. Floris van Dyck was renowned for his clientele consisting mainly of wealthy merchants and elites who not only collected paintings but also possessed significant amounts of Asian porcelain. This piece serves as a testament to their refined taste and appreciation for both art and luxury goods. The composition features an array of delectable treats such as cheeses, grapes, apples, pears, walnuts - all meticulously arranged on the table. A glass brimming with wine adds a touch of indulgence to this already lavish display. As we admire this masterpiece captured through oil on panel technique at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, we are transported back in time to experience the grandeur and elegance that defined Dutch society during its golden age.
