Früchte sammelnde Frauen (Kopie nach)

Polidoro employs a balanced blend of naturalistic observation and classical idealisation. The painting’s depth is achieved through chiaroscuro, the contrast of light and shadow that models the bodies and foliage, giving the scene a three‑dimensional presence. The handling of drapery and anatomy reflects the artist’s training in the Roman tradition.

After its execution in the early sixteenth century, the work entered various private collections before being acquired by the Alte Pinakothek, where it has remained on public display. Its attribution to Polidoro da Caravaggio has been confirmed through stylistic analysis and archival records linking the piece to his Roman period.
