Fruit is a 1656 oil by Michiel (II) Simons, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
This painting shows a still life with a variety of fruits and flowers. There's a glass of white wine in the middle, surrounded by grapes, pomegranates, and other fruits. A vase of colorful flowers is on the left side. The background is dark, which makes the fruits and flowers stand out. The painting looks like it was made a long time ago, but I don't know exactly when. It's very detailed, with lots of different textures and colors. The artist must have been very skilled to paint all the tiny details. If you like this painting, you might want to learn more about the technique called glazing.
Michiel Simons (1620–1673) was an artist, born in Antwerp.
