Willem Claesz Heda and
Pieter Claesz.
are the most important representatives of
ontbijt (breakfast piece) painting in the
Netherlands. His overall grey-green or
brownish tonalities are very similar to
those of Claesz., but Willem Claesz Heda still life was usually more highly
finished and his taste was more aristocratic.
He showed a preference for ham, mince-meat pie, and oysters, and after 1629 never included a herring in his pictures. His son Gerrit (d. 1702) was his most important pupil. |
