Mand met kool en knoflook 1809 - 1854

"Mand met kool en knoflook" (Basket with Cabbage and Garlic) is a lithograph created by Dutch artist Cornelis de Kruyff in the early 19th century. The artwork features a simple still life composition of a basket overflowing with cabbage and garlic, rendered in meticulous detail with graphite. De Kruyff, known for his meticulous drawings, skillfully captures the textures of the basket's woven material and the smooth surfaces of the vegetables. This piece exemplifies de Kruyff's mastery of the lithograph technique and his keen observation of natural forms. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases the beauty of everyday objects and the artist's dedication to realism.
