Children Picking Fruit

1640 - 1645. Oil on canvas.
Room 007A

Over the course of his career, Caravaggio developed a standard scene integrating human figures with plant elements -a good example is his Boy with a Basket of Fruit in the Galleria Borghese (c. 1595)- which remained highly popular even decades after his death in 1610. Cerquozzi achieved considerable fame with this kind of painting, counting among his clients a number of prominent members of the Spanish community in Rome.
