In the present signed and 1648 dated still life Luttichuys creates an illusionism with his masterful way of handling light and depicting the textures of the various objects and fruits, preluding the work of Willem Kalf.
Simon Luttichuys began his career by painting portraits in a somewhat stiff English style. His portrait of the bishop Thomas Morton of Saint John’s College, Cambridge, completed in 1638, places him still in England. In the same year, his younger brother, Isaack (London 1616-1673 Amsterdam), is mentioned as a painter of portraits in Amsterdam. Whether Simon subsequently spent time in England with a Dutch still life painter or continued his education in The Netherlands, is not known. His first still life arrangement is dated 1644. By 1649, Simon moved to Amsterdam and quickly turned to favour banquet and ‘splendour’ still lifes, which, as Dr. Bernt Ebert has argued, were to be of strong influence on the young Willem Kalf. Although Luttichuys spent the best part of his career in The Netherlands, his fame also continued to be praised in England.
