Still-Life with Fruit, Vegetables and Mushrooms
by CRESCENZI, Giovanni Battista, Oil on canvas, 122 x 163 cm
This high-quality “Caravaggesque” still-life was clearly inspired by still-lifes created in Rome in 1600-10 and drew on the compositional solutions adopted by Caravaggio in the Supper at Emmaus, now at the National Gallery in London. Its attribution is not certain but it was unquestionably produced by a Roman workshop.
