Vaas met krullen, bloemen en vruchten 1714

This 1714 etching by Maximilian Joseph Limpach, titled "Vaas met krullen, bloemen en vruchten" (Vase with curls, flowers and fruits), is a fine example of Baroque still life. The elaborate ornamentation of the vase, with its scrollwork and human faces, complements the richly detailed floral arrangement. The black and white tones add to the overall sense of grandeur and formality. This print, part of a larger series, highlights the artist's interest in the beauty and design of everyday objects, a hallmark of the Baroque style.
