18th-Century Oil on Panel Still Life Painting, The Netherlands

The Netherlands / 18th century / Painting / wood / Antique / Art This refined 18th-century still life from the Netherlands exemplifies quietly dramatic elegance. Executed in oil on a wooden panel, the composition presents a beautifully arranged assortment of fruits; grapes, pomegranates, apples, and berries, set against a deep, atmospheric background. The painter’s sensitive handling of light brings a luminous softness to the fruit, highlighting subtle textures and creating a warm, contemplative mood. The work is housed in a substantial, richly colored wooden frame with a deep profile and a lustrous reddish-brown finish. Its classical form complements the painting’s Baroque sensibility and anchors the piece with a commanding presence suitable for both period and modern interiors.
