This is a copy of a detail from a painting of circa 1645 by Jan Davidsz. de Heem in the Swedish Royal Collection. There are many versions of this successful composition, for example that excecuted by Jan van Kessel in 1654.

We are grateful to Mr. Fred Meijer of the RKD for proposing the attribution and for his help in cataloguing this lot.
