The Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Fort Worth has acquired the painting, Peaches and Grapes in a Chinese Export Basket (1813), by artist Raphaelle Peale (1774-1825). It’s the first work by Peale to enter the museum’s collection, a still life purchased in memory, Carter officials say, of museum founder Ruth Carter Stevenson, who died in 2013.

The painting, which carries an estimated $1 million value, will be on view beginning Tuesday.

“Raphaelle Peale is considered the first American still-life artist,” Carter director Andrew J. Walker said in a statement. “His paintings established the tradition in this country, and they remain among the most magnificent images of their kind ever created. Adding this superb painting by Peale gives depth to the collection, and it also provides us an opportunity to tell the story of how still life became a respected art form.”
