JEAN-BAPTISTE HUET, APPLES, BLACK CHALK, WATERCOLOUR AND BODYCOLOUR, SIGNED AND DATED 1792

Within the corpus of drawings by Huet, the studies of fruits and vegetables are distinguished by their sobriety and descriptive meticulousness. Several sheets from this series are conserved in museum collections, including Corn and Wheat Spikes from 1792 (The Morgan Library and Museum, New York, inv. 1992.2; see C. D. Denison, French Master Drawings in the Pierpont Morgan Library, New York, 1993, no. 85, ill.), made in the same year as the present drawing, and Two Squashes of 1785 (Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, inv. WA1942.25; see J. Whiteley, Ashmolean Museum. Catalogue of the Collection of Drawings, VII, Oxford, 2000, no. 740, ill.). Most of these studies are numbered, suggesting that they were collected by Huet in an album (B. Couilleaux, Jean-Baptiste Huet. Le Plaisir de la nature, exhib. cat., Paris, Musée Cognacq-Jay, 2016, no. 25, ill.).
