Still Life with Meat, Fish, Vegetables, and Fruit

Cleveland Museum of Art

A still life painting depicts a table with a white and grey tablecloth. The table features various food items. On the left, a wicker basket overflows with vegetables, fruits, and leafy greens. To the right of the basket are scattered cherries on the table and on a branch. A halved lemon and a whole loaf of bread are on the left side of the table. A red plate holds a whole fish, and a small pile of cherries and vegetables are nearby. In the center, a large black dish contains sliced meat and a leg of meat. Behind it, another black dish holds two cooked legs of meat. To the right, a blue and white plate displays a large sausage on a leaf, and a cluster of red grapes sits beside it. A small blue and white pot of berries and a butter dish are in front. A partially visible white cloth and another black dish with food are on the right edge. The background is dark brown.
