Stilleven met schalen en bokalen 1670 - 1724

Jacob Gole's "Stilleven met schalen en bokalen" is a 17th-century Dutch still life etching showcasing a lavish arrangement of silver vessels, including a pitcher, a bowl, and a goblet. The composition is set against a dark background, creating a dramatic contrast with the highly detailed, ornate silver objects. The artwork's meticulous portrayal of these precious objects reflects the Dutch fascination with wealth and craftsmanship. The inclusion of lemons and other fruits in the lower right corner suggests a connection to the art of feasting and celebration.
