Stilleven met vruchten en gedecoreerde pot 1811 - 1849

This graphite drawing by Maria Geertruida de Goeje-Barbiers, titled "Stilleven met vruchten en gedecoreerde pot", depicts a still life with fruit and a decorated pot. Dating to between 1811 and 1849, the artwork showcases a cluster of grapes, an apple, and a pear resting on a ledge in front of an ornate pot. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and the use of light and shadow create a realistic and engaging image, characteristic of the Dutch still life tradition. The delicate tendrils of the grapevine and the wheat stalks add a sense of natural beauty and grace to the composition.
