Still Life with Game Fowl, 1600/03
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Juan Sanchez Cotan captures the essence of a bountiful larder in 17th century Spain. This exquisite oil painting showcases the artist's mastery in depicting various elements of nature and food. In this artwork, a variety of game birds, including ducks and pigeons, are carefully arranged alongside vibrant fruits and vegetables. The meticulous attention to detail is evident as each feather and leaf is rendered with precision. The rich colors bring life to the canvas, making it feel almost tangible. The composition centers around a magnificent wild duck perched atop an array of fresh produce. Its iridescent feathers shimmer against the backdrop of deep green cabbage leaves and ripe melons. A quince adds a touch of golden warmth while cucumbers provide contrasting shades of cool greens. Cotan's still life not only celebrates the beauty found in everyday objects but also explores deeper themes such as mortality and abundance. By showcasing deceased game fowl amidst an abundant harvest, he reminds us that life is transient yet full of richness. This masterpiece now resides at the Art Institute Chicago where visitors can marvel at its timeless allure. "Still Life with Game Fowl, 1600/03" serves as a testament to Cotan's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to capture fleeting moments in art history for generations to come.
