"Maiolica Basket of Fruit" is a renowned still-life painting by the Italian Baroque artist Fede Galizia, painted circa 1610. Galizia, noted for her detailed and realistic still lifes, was one of the first known female still-life painters and is considered a pioneer in the genre. The painting is celebrated for its meticulous depiction of a wicker basket brimming with an assortment of fruits, showcasing Galizia's skill in rendering textures and surfaces with precision and her ability to capture the play of light on different forms.

The artwork is composed with a striking sense of naturalism, featuring a variety of fruits that include ripe peaches, cherries, and pears, among others, all rendered with a high degree of botanical accuracy. The composition is both simple and sophisticated, with the fruits carefully arranged to create a balance of colors and shapes, inviting the viewer to contemplate the beauty of the ordinary objects.

"Maiolica Basket of Fruit" not only exemplifies Galizia's mastery of the still-life form but also reflects the cultural and artistic interests of the early 17th century in Italy, where such paintings were popular among wealthy patrons who appreciated the depiction of luxury goods and the demonstration of artistic skill. The painting is a testament to Galizia's reputation as a significant figure in the development of still-life painting in Europe.

The work is named after the Italian tin-glazed pottery known as maiolica, due to the resemblance of the basket's texture to this type of ceramic. This painting is often cited as a key example of Galizia's contribution to the still-life genre and is frequently studied for its historical significance and aesthetic qualities. It remains an important work in the oeuvre of Fede Galizia and in the broader context of still-life painting during the Baroque period.
