Painting Description
"Three Medlars with a Butterfly" is a still life painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Adriaen Coorte, dated to around 1705. Known for his simple yet masterfully executed still lifes, Coorte's work often features a small number of objects depicted with a remarkable attention to detail and a strong sense of texture and light. This painting is no exception, as it showcases three medlar fruits and a butterfly arranged on a stone ledge against a dark background, a composition that is both modest in its subject matter and rich in its visual appeal.
The painting is executed in oil on paper, mounted on canvas, a medium that Coorte favored for its ability to capture fine details. Measuring 19.7 by 14.6 centimeters, it is one of the smaller works in Coorte's oeuvre, which is characterized by its intimate scale. The artist's signature and the date are typically inscribed on the ledge or wall within the composition, providing a direct connection to the artist's hand.
Coorte's still lifes are noted for their meditative quality and the sense of tranquility they evoke. "Three Medlars with a Butterfly" reflects this aesthetic, with its restrained composition and the delicate interplay of light and shadow. The medlars, a fruit that was a common subject in Dutch still life painting, are rendered with precise detail, highlighting their unique texture and form. The butterfly adds a touch of life and movement to the otherwise static arrangement.
Adriaen Coorte's works, including "Three Medlars with a Butterfly," are highly regarded for their contribution to the still life genre. His paintings are held in various public and private collections, and they continue to be studied and admired for their simplicity, elegance, and technical skill. This particular painting exemplifies Coorte's ability to transform ordinary subjects into works of enduring beauty and significance.
