About the work
In the 1760s, after painting portraits and miniatures with his father, Luis Meléndez began to specialise in still lifes. Active mainly in Madrid, he is regarded as the finest Spanish still-life painter of the 18th century, though he spent much of his life in poverty. Painted c. 1772.
