‘Marchande de fruits à son étal’, by Louyse Moillon — brought to life!
It is hard to believe that Louyse was only 19 when she painted this majestic still life in 1629. Only the second signed and dated still life in French art, she was the first artist to truly introduce the genre to France. This striking composition, influenced by Flemish masters like Clara Peeters, radiates warmth and realism — you can almost taste the peaches and plums.
