“Summer” would be an apt title for this still life that depicts roses in full bloom, regional garden fruit, and a piece of white bread on which a black fly crawls. It is one of Waldmüller’s first still lifes. He was at the beginning of his career and seems to have still been searching. As a portraitist he had already made a name for himself. But still life and flower painting were uncharted territory for the artist. The same applies to landscape, both in Vienna’s surroundings and in the Salzkammergut, which he discovered slightly later.
