Still-Life
after 1653
Oil on oak, 54,5 x 44 cm
Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne |

Juriaen Streeck was the closest follower of
Willem Kalf. In this small painting by the Amsterdam artist, against a
dark background, illuminated by an invisible source, precious objects
decoratively arranged form a still-life that is particularly effective
in its subdued colour tones and juxtaposition of textures. In the choice
of objects and of a dark background Streeck follows Willem Kalf, but
this painting is an original masterpiece.
