Still life with exotic fruit basket, grapes and roses Oil on panel, within an important frame - A valuable oil painting depicting a rich and opulent fruit composition. At the center of the scene stands a woven basket overflowing with exotic fruits, including a finely detailed pineapple, ripe peaches, black and white grapes, and strawberries. The composition is embellished in the foreground by a small bouquet of roses in delicate tones, recalling the related floral lot.

The lighting, clearly Baroque-inspired, comes from the left, creating a strong chiaroscuro contrast that gives volume and depth to the elements. The painting is presented within a gilded and decorated tray
