Moorcroft Still Life

Designer: Kerry Goodwin

Open edition

Size: H 7cm

A famous still-life fruit painting, created by the Italian Baroque painter Luca Forte, Still Life with Grapes and Other Fruit is an iconic fruit painting from the 17th century. The still-life presents a gorgeous image of abundance, represented by the luscious-looking grapes, and emphasized by the roundness of the apples. And so it is with the Moorcroft jug, pouring out burgundy-blue grapes reflecting the moment when each grape reaches full ripeness, against varying mellow hues of green-yellow vine leaves, apples and soft fleshed, and juicy Mirabelle de Nancy plums.
