EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite still life painting, titled "Still Life with Chickens and Eggs," dates back to the 17th century and was created by the talented Italian artist, Giovanni Battista Recco. The scene presents a rich and intriguing tableau of poultry and eggs, arranged on a worn wooden table with various furniture elements and a sack in the background. The central focus is on a red and white checkered tablecloth, upon which rests a woven basket filled with freshly laid eggs, their pristine white shells contrasting against the vibrant yolks. Two chickens, one alive and perched on a hanging sack, and the other dead, with its head turned upside down, are positioned nearby. The broken eggshells scattered around the table add to the sense of freshness and abundance. This painting is a visual representation of the age-old proverb, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" which has puzzled philosophers and thinkers for centuries. The use of oil on canvas technique and the meticulous attention to detail are characteristic of the Old Master tradition, making this work a valuable addition to the artistic heritage of Europe, specifically the Dutch and Italian schools. This masterpiece is currently housed in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
