Still Life: A Basket of Grapes and Other Fruit

probably ca. 1635–45
Not on view
Hulsdonck was born in Antwerp but spent his early years in the southern Dutch port of Middelburg, where the flower painter Ambrosius Bosschaert (1573–1621) was his model. In this late work Hulsdonck employs a standard Antwerp composition, familiar from pictures by Jan Breughel I and II and by Frans Snyders (from whom the rhythmic tendrils come).
