EDITORS COMMENTS
In this still life painting titled "Just Dessert" by William Michael Harnett, we are transported back to the year 1891. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this oil on canvas masterpiece. Measuring at 56.6x68 cm, it can be found proudly displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago. The composition features a delightful arrangement of objects that tantalize our senses. A bottle, pitchers, and a jug are carefully placed alongside a branch adorned with luscious grapes and a tempting coconut. Each element seems so lifelike that one might mistake them for real objects rather than mere paint on canvas. Harnett's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to the scene, making us feel as if we could reach out and touch these delectable treats. The vibrant colors chosen by the artist further enhance our visual experience, evoking feelings of warmth and indulgence. This artwork from the Friends of American Art Collection reminds us not only of the beauty found in everyday objects but also serves as an homage to the rich tradition of still life painting throughout history. It invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures in life while marveling at Harnett's technical prowess. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless piece through their expert photography skills, allowing art enthusiasts around the world to admire its intricate details without being physically present at The Art Institute of Chicago.
