Abraham de Lust

Abraham de Lust is a Dutch Golden Age artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Ashmolean Museum.

Dutch still-life painter Abraham de Lust filled quiet oil paintings with everyday abundance. In his 1655 Still Life of a Peach and Grapes, soft light turns fruit into glowing objects, a quiet feast on the table. He worked in the 1600s, when Dutch artists turned humble scenes into art.

Tap the peach and grapes to zoom in and see how the brushwork keeps the fruit from rotting, even after centuries.
