Anyone purchasing a work by Henk Helmantel featuring archaeological objects can enjoy not only the painting but also museum archaeology. As is the case with this work, which depicts a 15th-century grape from the collection of Museum Helmantel. The pot (15th century, 13 cm) has a distinctive oxidation colour. Behind it is an even older Flemish pouring jug (13th/14th century, 28 cm), which can also be admired in the museum.
