Willem Claeszoon Heda (1593/1594 – 1680/1682) was a Dutch Golden Age still life artist from the city of Haarlem. Heda was a master at displaying the material expression of the objects. The still-lifes of Heda often have a composition in the shape of a triangle, with the highest objects placed on one side. Heda used relatively little color in his work, which some people call monochrome.
