A magnificent nautilus cup dominates the center of this still life, its pearlescent surface gleaming against the dark background. On a marble tabletop, partially covered by a rich Persian rug, a silver dish holds a half-peeled lemon and an orange, their vibrant colors a striking contrast. An overturned façon-de-venise glass, a rolled piece of paper with pepper, and a delicate butterfly in the upper right add to the composition's intricate detail. Painted in oil on canvas by Frans Sant-Acker during the 17th century, this piece exemplifies the meticulous realism of the Dutch Golden Age. It would enhance a refined living room or a study with its subtle grandeur.
