David de Heem was the son of Cornelis de Heem and grandson of Jan Davidsz. de Heem. He was probably trained by his father in The Hague. Confusion between the work and signatures of the different members of the family has caused the work of the grandson to become submerged in misattributions. This signed work closely relates to a number of his father's late, modest still-life paintings and may date from the time David was in his father's studio.
