Painting Description
"Asparagus And Red Currants On A Stone Ledge" is a remarkable still life painting created by the Golden Age painter, Adriaen Coorte, in 1696. Characterized by its detailed and nuanced representation, the artwork is part of Coorte's eminent oeuvre of intimate, small-scale compositions. Measuring 25 x 20 centimeters, the painting showcases a modest arrangement of six spears of asparagus and a branch of red currants, juxtaposed on a stone ledge against a dark, neutral background.
Coorte's work distinguishes itself with a simple layout and immense precision in texture and lighting, a testament to his mastery in using light and shadow to give depth and realism to the objects depicted. The solitary nature of this painting’s subjects, which are seemingly suspended in an undefined space, further emphasizes the sense of contemplation and serenity, a hallmark in Coorte’s work.
This work, as with other Coorte paintings, presents a mystery to art historiographers due to the artist's tendency to sign and date his work, but not to title it. Therefore, the art has been known simply by its primary subjects, "Asparagus And Red Currants On A Stone Ledge".
Heavily influenced by the Middelburg School and its environmental context, the symbolic representation of the humble subjects such as asparagus and red currants, establishes an extraordinary attention to the ephemeral and memento mori genres—a reflection on mortality reminding viewers of the every day's preciousness.
"Asparagus And Red Currants On A Stone Ledge" is preserved in excellent condition allowing the refined features of the painting to remain clear for contemporary audiences, thereby providing significant insight into Coorte's meticulous and unique style during the Dutch Golden Age.
