2 6/20/2016 (2) Juan Sanchez de Cotán, Quince, Melon and Cucumber Spain Baroque art Baroque to Neoclassical art in Europe Khan Academy melon and quince mean? Is there some underlying universal truth at the heart of their stark, spare, meticulous arrangement within the window s inky, impenetrable darkness? Completely different from the voluptuous pronkstilleven, the ostentatious 17th-century still lifes of Dutch art with their luscious lobsters, silver chargers and glass vessels strewn in careless abandon (as in the example below), Cotán s pristine austerity is akin to a vegetal altar. Jan Davidsz. de Heem, Still Life with Ham, Lobster and Fruit, c. 1653, 75 x 105 cm (Boijmans Museum, Rotterdam) Cotan was a pioneer of the Spanish still life bodegón, an arrangement of simple foodstuffs. Some historians have suggested he drew his inspiration from his own ascetic Carthusian piety (the Carthusians are an order of monks 2/7
3 that live in seclusion and devote themselves to prayer). Born in Orgaz, his art developed in completely the opposite direction from El Greco, whose profuse and luxurious altarpiece of the Burial of Count Orgaz is located in the Cathedral of San Tomé, Toledo, where Cotán had a studio. His still lifes, however, belong to his secular period before entering the monastery, after which he took up religious painting, later electing to leave the monastery and dying as a lay brother in Granada. 3/7
4 El Greco, Burial of Count Orgaz, 1586, oil on canvas, cm (Santo Tomé, Toledo, Spain) Archimedes hyperbola If these still lifes are not ascetic deliberations, or early meditations on vegetarianism, what could they possibly mean? What of the quince and cabbage, suspended, as was typically done in country kitchens, to keep them from 4/7
5 spoiling? Why a sectioned melon, seeds exposed, a quivering sliver sitting on the sill beside the cut fruit? The final member of the quartet is the intact cucumber, pushed over the edge of the sill toward the viewer, completing a sequence of gradual emergence from the window s depths. In fact, the gradual, emergent curvilinear plane has been compared to Archimedes hyperbola, suggesting that such paintings, which were generally made for an educated, secular clientele, were perhaps understood as geometric meditations (Archimedes was a 3rd century B.C.E. Greek mathematician and astronomer). Archimedes was first translated and published by Federico Commandino in 1565 (Archimedis De iis quae vehuntur in aqua libri duo/ a Frederico Commandino restituti et commentariis illustrate), at approximately the same time that he published his ownde Centro Gravitatis. Commandino s work was followed by Luca Valerio s De Centro Gravitatis in 1604 confirming a strong contemporary interest in spherical bodies that might be related to Cotán s still-life experiments. 5/7

Spain was, of course, at the forefront of exploration in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Or, they could represent specific celestial bodies in their various phases, although Galileo did not turn his telescope toward the moon until Finally, all four of the items here were introduced from Europe for cultivation in the New World, perhaps alluding, however obliquely, to Empire and conversion. 6/7
