1687 Blue Brown Cornelis Dusart Gray Haarlem Red Chalk Washes Yellow 1660 1704 Kitchen Scene

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a kitchen scene in 1687. The artist, Cornelis Dusart, a Dutch painter hailing from Haarlem, skillfully captures the essence of everyday life during this period. Using black and red chalk as well as shades of brown, gray, blue, and yellow washes on a sheet measuring approximately 10 9/16 x 8 7/8 inches (268 x 225 cm), Dusart brings to life the bustling activity within this domestic space. The composition is rich with intricate details that draw our attention. We see women engaged in various tasks; one stirs a pot over an open fire while another prepares ingredients on a wooden table. The warm glow emanating from the hearth casts soft shadows across their faces and highlights the textures of their garments. Dusart's meticulous drawings reveal his keen eye for capturing human expressions and gestures. Each figure seems to have its own story to tell - some appear engrossed in conversation while others focus intently on their work. Through these subtle nuances, we gain insight into the daily routines and interactions that shaped life in seventeenth-century kitchens. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical document, offering viewers a glimpse into bygone eras where simplicity reigned supreme. As we admire Dusart's craftsmanship and attention to detail, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and provide us with windows into worlds long past.
