About the workJohann Wilhelm Preyer made a name for himself with his crystal-clear, precisely painted still lifes. Arrangements of fruit on marble boards or tablecloths with glass or porcelain vessels were typical of his work. Later, his daughter Emilie followed in his footsteps with confusingly similar motifs. Johann Wilhelm Preyer’s images were in demand from buyers as far away as the USA. He was the most famous and commercially successful Düsseldorf still life painter of his time.
