Description
A pair of still lifes featuring peacocks and fruit. Flemish Baroque school. 17th century Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 141 x 92 cm and 151 x 103 cm. This pair of still lifes presents a lush and detailed composition featuring peacocks in the foreground, accompanied by fruit arranged in bowls, plates and hanging bunches. The scenes are set against a dark background that accentuates the drama of the directed light, creating intense contrasts and pronounced volumes. The meticulous rendering of textures—feathers, fruit skins, leaves and ceramics—reveals profound technical skill and a refined sense of naturalistic observation. The symmetrical and balanced arrangement of the elements reinforces the visual harmony and lends a sense of solemnity to the scene. The vibrant colours of the grapes, pears, apples and flowers combine with the golden tones of the birds to convey a sense of wealth, fertility and opulence. These works are firmly rooted in the tradition of 17th-century Flemish Baroque painting, in which still life emerged as an independent genre, blending painterly virtuosity with symbolism representing abundance, luxury and the fleeting nature of earthly life. Dimensions: 141 x 92 cm and 151 x 103 cm.
