"A Still Life With Peaches, Grapes, Plums, A Melon, Cherries, Walnuts, Chestnuts On A Wan-li Porcelain Plate, Together With Two Snails On A Marble Ledge, Draped With A Blue Cloth" is a sumptuous and meticulously detailed still life painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Johan Christian Roedig. This work exemplifies the genre of still life that flourished during the 17th century in the Netherlands, a period marked by a fascination with the detailed depiction of everyday objects and the exploration of their symbolic meanings.

The painting presents a rich array of fruits arranged with a sense of both abundance and order, resting on a Wan-li porcelain plate, which itself is a testament to the Dutch trade with Asia and the popularity of exotic wares during the period. The composition includes peaches, grapes, plums, a melon, cherries, walnuts, and chestnuts, each rendered with careful attention to texture, color, and form, showcasing Roedig's skill in capturing the varied surfaces and the play of light on the different materials.

Adding to the composition's complexity are two snails, which may symbolize the transience of life or the idea of fertility and resurrection in Christian iconography. These creatures, along with the fruits, are placed on a marble ledge, further emphasizing the contrast between the organic and the inanimate. The scene is completed with a casually draped blue cloth, which not only adds a rich color contrast to the warm tones of the fruits but also demonstrates Roedig's ability to depict different fabrics and materials.

Johan Christian Roedig, though not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, was a master of the still life genre, and this painting is a fine example of his work. It invites viewers to contemplate not only the beauty of the natural world but also the symbolic meanings and the impermanence of earthly pleasures. The painting's precise date of creation is not well-documented, but it is consistent with the style and themes of Dutch still life paintings from the second half of the 17th century.

This work is significant for its demonstration of the technical proficiency and the thematic depth characteristic of Dutch still life paintings. It offers insight into the cultural and artistic preoccupations of the time, including the celebration of commerce, the fascination with the natural world, and the exploration of moral and philosophical ideas through the medium of art.
