Still life with wooden bowl of bread and grapes

About this work

Henk Helmantel has reached his peak. Few works of this caliber are in private ownership. It is rightly included in his books alongside the museum pieces. Every detail of this work is top-notch: the layers in the wooden box, the level of the grapes, the quality of the sugarloaf, and the perfectly executed play of light and shadow. Unfortunately, there is no professional photo for the site, but the keen observer and every enthusiast knows enough even from this picture.
