"Peaches, Plums, Medlar" is a still life painting by Pieter Snyers, a Flemish painter known for his detailed and vivid depictions of fruits, flowers, and everyday objects. Born in Antwerp in 1681, Snyers was a prominent artist of the Baroque period, and his works are characterized by their realistic representation and rich, textured surfaces.

The painting "Peaches, Plums, Medlar" is a testament to Snyers' skill in capturing the subtleties of color and light. The composition typically features an arrangement of the titular fruits, showcasing their varied textures and colors against a muted background. The peaches and plums, with their soft, velvety skins, are often contrasted with the rough, russet surface of the medlar, a less commonly depicted fruit in art. This juxtaposition not only highlights the diversity of nature's bounty but also demonstrates Snyers' adeptness at rendering different materials.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not always clear, works such as "Peaches, Plums, Medlar" are usually dated to the early 18th century, a period when Snyers was active and producing a significant number of still lifes. The painting is executed in oil on canvas or panel, a medium that allows for the fine detailing and subtle gradations of light and shade that are hallmarks of Snyers' style.

"Peaches, Plums, Medlar" is not only a celebration of the natural world but also an example of the vanitas theme, a common motif in still life painting that serves as a reminder of the transience of life and the futility of pleasure. The ripe fruits, at the peak of their beauty, may also symbolize the fleeting nature of youth and life's ephemeral pleasures.

As with many of Snyers' works, "Peaches, Plums, Medlar" would have appealed to the tastes of the wealthy merchant class in the Southern Netherlands, who were keen patrons of the arts and collectors of such detailed and luxurious still life paintings. Today, the painting is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities as well as its place within the context of Baroque art and the still life genre. It can be found in art collections and museums that focus on Flemish and Dutch painting of the 17th and 18th centuries.
