Born in Northern Hungary, Bogdány moved to London in 1688 where his vivid still life paintings were popular among the aristocracy and commissioned by prominent individuals such as Queen Mary and Queen Anne. We are grateful to Dr. Fred Meijer for endorsing the attribution to Jakob Bogdány on the basis of photographs. He suggests that this painting was executed late in the artist's career, probably after 1700.
