EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Floris van Schooten, we are transported to a bustling market scene where a young girl takes center stage. The image showcases her entrepreneurial spirit as she skillfully sells grapes from a large table overflowing with an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables. The composition is a feast for the eyes, with vibrant colors and textures that bring the produce to life. From the crisp cabbage leaves to the plump marrows and artichokes, every item on the table exudes freshness. Quinces, apples, plums, gherkins, onions, blackberries - they all contribute to this cornucopia of flavors. The girl herself is depicted with utmost realism; her youthful face radiates determination as she carefully weighs out each bunch of grapes on antique scales. Her presence adds a touch of innocence amidst the richness of nature's bounty. This still life captures not only the beauty found in everyday objects but also hints at themes such as commerce and sustenance. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature's gifts and how they sustain us physically and economically. Displayed proudly in London's Johnny van Haeften Gallery, this timeless artwork continues to inspire viewers today. Its charm lies in its ability to transport us back in time while reminding us of the enduring value that lies within simple pleasures like fresh fruit and vegetables.
