Still Life with Cheese | Floris Claesz. van Dijck
Fruit, bread, and cheese – grouped by type – are set on a table covered with costly damask
tablecloths. The illusion of reality is astounding; the pewter plate extending over the edge
of the table seems close enough to touch. The Haarlem painter Floris van Dijck ranked among
the pioneers of Dutch still-life painting.
