EDITORS COMMENTS
Cornelis Norbertus Gysbrechts' Trompe l'Oeil with Breakfast Piece and Goblets, created in 1672, is a stunning example of Flemish art from the seventeenth century. This oil on canvas painting, now housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark, is a masterful exploration of the concept of trompe l'oeil, a technique that uses realistic imagery to create an optical illusion of depth and three-dimensionality. In this work, Gysbrechts invites us to peer into a world of sumptuous indulgence, as if we have been granted a secret peek into an opulent breakfast scene. The table is set with an oriental cloth, its intricate patterns adding an exotic allure to the scene. At its center lies a breakfast piece, adorned with a succulent lobster, ripe fruit, and two goblets, their golden rims reflecting the soft light that filters through the curtains. A closer look reveals the artist's meticulous attention to detail. The lobster's claws are poised as if ready to grasp the chalice, while the goblets, filled with what appears to be red wine, seem to brim with the promise of a luxurious morning repast. The tablecloth, with its delicate folds and intricate patterns, adds to the illusion of a real, tactile scene. Gysbrechts' Trompe l'Oeil with Breakfast Piece and Goblets is a revelation in the world of still life painting. It invites us to look closer, to question the reality of what we see, and to marvel at the artist's skill in creating a world that defies the boundaries of the canvas. This painting is a testament to the enduring allure of the art of trompe l'oeil, and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
