Flemish Masters, 17th century, Flemish Masters, 17th century Still Life with Porcelain Vase, Oysters and Fruit

Oil on Canvas, 45 × 62 cm

In the centre of attention of the image is a plate of assorted fruits and a porcelain vase positioned atop of stone tabletop, illuminated by light. The tablecloth, fashioned from green velvet, is artfully pushed back. The plate, slightly angled, rests upon a decorated platter decorated with open oysters. Oranges and a peeled lemon lie in the deep plate, with the lemon peel elegantly curling over its edge. Next to the platter, to the right are blue grapes and another fruit. Behind them, in the darker background, a wine glass with a lemon peel can be noticed. On the left side of the composition, a peach and grapes with green berries are on top a rich red velvet cloth.
