Natura morta con frutta

c. 1670

Entra nel mondo oscuro e suggestivo di Cornelis de Heem, dove una semplice mensola di pietra diventa il palcoscenico per il banchetto supremo della natura. Osserva attentamente quella buccia d'arancia perfettamente spiralata: non è solo uno spuntino, ma un parco giochi per una piccola ape indaffarata, mentre una delicata farfalla bianca svolazza vicino a una pesca succosa e spaccata sottostante. De Heem era un maestro dell'Età dell'Oro olandese, e ha riempito questa tela di simboli nascosti di abbondanza e della natura effimera della vita, il tutto ambientato su uno sfondo drammatico e ombreggiato che fa quasi brillare ogni goccia di succo di frutta.
