FOOD IN ART BY JUAN

FOOD IN ART:

This painting is called Still Life.

It´s by the Dutch painter Jan Davidsz de Heem,  within the 

genre of still lifes where it combines the 

harmony of colours with an exact representation of the objects.

Jan Davidsz is a great representative 

of Dutch and Flemish Barroque painting. 

His artistic style is Barroque.

I can see a black wall in the background and a large table.

There are two glasses and three bowls on the table.

I can also see a jug and a tray on the brown table.

There are some pomegranates and some plums 

in the bowl on the left.

There´s some wine in two glasses.

There´s a lobster next to the jug.

There are four red cherries under the bowl on the left.

There are three small tomatoes on the table.

There´s a prawn and  a crab on the table.

There´s some bread, vegetables and seafood on the tray.

There are some yellow and purple grapes and some beautiful oranges in the center bowl.

There are two large white and red peaches on the table.

I can also see some meat in the bowl on the right.

There´s a lot of fruit on the right side of the painting.

I like the big green pumpkin a lot and the peeled orange.

There are some leaves all over the painting.

I´ve got a similar painting in my house.
