Banquet Still Life 1644
by Adriaen van Utrecht
The Fleming Adriaen van Utrecht here demonstrated that he could paint virtually anything, from costly tableware to glass, fruit, an enormous lobster on a Chinese plate, a cut-open pasty, and much more. Given
its striking low vantage point, this large painting was most likely meant to hang above a chimneypiece.
