Still Life with Cooking Utensils is a 1729 oil by Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, a Rococo painting work, held at Norton Simon Museum.
This painting shows a kitchen scene with a table and various objects. The table is covered with a white cloth, and on it are a large brown jug, a metal pot, a ladle, and some vegetables. A piece of meat hangs from a hook above the table. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail and texture. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and volume in the scene. The artist who created this painting is Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin.
Jean Siméon Chardin (French: ; November 2, 1699 – December 6, 1779) was an 18th-century French painter.
