Still Life with a Gilt Cup, 1635. Creator: Willem Claesz Heda
Still Life with a Gilt Cup, 1635. In forty years, Willem Heda only ever painted still lifes. His paintings differ from the still lifes of his contemporaries: the colours are gentler, cooler and more harmonious. The bright yellow lemon peel is the only colour accent. In this work, Heda shows his skill in rendering different textures and the light reflected on these surfaces: each object on the table reflects another object

EDITORS COMMENTS
Willem Claesz Heda's Still Life with a Gilt Cup, painted in 1635, is a stunning example of the Dutch Golden Age's mastery of still life painting. Heda dedicated his forty-year career to this genre, producing works that stand out for their gentle, cool, and harmonious color palette. In this piece, a yellow lemon peel serves as the sole color accent, adding a vibrant contrast against the predominantly white and muted tones. The artist's skillful rendering of various textures and the way light reflects on these surfaces is on full display. Each object on the tabletop – from the aquatic life, bread, and century-old crockery, to the gilded chalice, jug, and pitcher – reflects another object, creating an intricate interplay of light and shadow. The still life consists of a rich array of items, including a gilt cup, a goblet, an overturned earthenware jug, a pewter pitcher, a plate, and a tablecloth. The table is adorned with an oyster shell, a ripe fruit, and a pitcher, all of which add to the abundance and wealth portrayed in the painting. This oil on panel masterpiece, created during the seventeenth century in the Netherlands, is a testament to Heda's exceptional talent and the cultural heritage of European art. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam proudly houses this work, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of Heda's composition and the beauty of the objects he so skillfully depicted.
