專家說明

This still life, like the previous lot, is mentioned in Huilliot’s account book of 1741 for a commission of a group of still lifes for the ‘Comte de Denonville’. On a slightly bigger scale, it could have been part of the same decorative scheme, most likely inset into boiserie panelling, for which Huilliot was paid a total of 2,860 livres.
