cma-european-art: Wineglass and a Bowl of Fruit, Willem Kalf , 1663, Cleveland Museum of Art: European Painting and SculptureThe porcelain bowl in this painting came from China, produced before 1620 under the Ming emperor Wanli. Political turbulence in China effectively eliminated ceramic imports to the West by the 1640s, so the object would have been considered at least as valuable as the gold and silver goblet beside it.Size: Framed: 81 x 70.5 x 7.5 cm (31 7/8 x 27 ¾ x 2 15/16 in.); Unframed: 60.3 x 50.2 cm (23 ¾ x 19 ¾ in.)Medium: oil on canvashttps://clevelandart.org/art/1962.292 -- source link
