The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. (NGA) has acquired Louise Moillon's 1636 Still Life with a Basket of Peaches and Grapes (spotted via. @Mweilc). The work was offered at Christie's Paris back in 2021 but failed to sell with its estimate of 300,000 - 500,000 EUR. The work was eventually acquired by the NGA through the London dealers Ben Elwes Fine Art in 2024.
