16th, 17th and 19th Century Carrots in Art

Festoen van vruchten, Anonymous, Paul Fürst, c. 1600 - before 1624 

After reading that overview of carrots in the different centuries I checked out the collection at  www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/  to see what artists had laying around to serve as a model.   I suppose they could just do them from memory but it seems forking was considered normal in this first design.  I love this engraving!!

This next one is early 17th century.

Still Life with Fruit and Vegetables, with Christ at Emmaus in the background, Floris van Schooten, c. 1630

Woman Selling Vegetables, Lambertus Johannes Hansen, 1825 - 1845

Pieter Aertsen's work below appears to have a redder carrot and an orange variety (and a rather odd lady).

early 16th century

The next two are more to my liking, the works of Pieter Aertsen's nephew, Joachim Beuckelaer.  He uses almost the same carrot arrangement in both paintings...
