Juan van der Hamen y Léon

Cleveland Museum of Art

Still life painting with sweets by Juan van der Hamen y Léon. The painting depicts a shelf with a dark background. On the left side, a glass plate holds a white block covered with small brown balls and a brown cake covered with small brown balls. Three open and two closed nuts are on the shelf to the left. In the center, a dark bottle and a tall, thin, ornate glass with a red substance are placed. On the right side, a light-colored wooden box is positioned. On top of the box, a black stand holds a plate with a brown cake covered with brown nuts and seeds, and a white block covered in a white doily-like material. The painting is signed in the bottom-left corner.
