Cavarozzi’s acute observational skills capture the intersection between art and the natural sciences, a source of interest at the academy established by his patron, the Roman nobleman Giovanni Battista Crescenzi. A contemporary recorded artists there copying "fruits, animals and other bizarre things." Elsewhere, Cavarozzi incorporated still life into religious subjects, but here he isolated his attention on fruit and birds familiar to Roman gardens. Erudite viewers would have associated his choice of subject with an episode in Pliny the Elder’s Natural History, in which the Greek painter Zeuxis depicted grapes so convincingly that birds came down to peck at them.
