Still Life is a 1650 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a table covered with a white cloth. On it sit a dark jug, a shiny metal pot, a small cup, and some peeled fruit. A knife and a spoon lie near a half-peeled lemon. The background is plain and dark, with a window or archway behind the objects. The artist used shadows to make the objects look three-dimensional. The contrast between light and dark helps each item stand out. Look up *chiaroscuro* next to see how this technique works.
