Still Life with Fowl is a 1728 oil by Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, a Rococo painting work, held at Munich Central Collecting Point.
This painting shows a still life of food and kitchen items. A dead bird hangs from a hook on the right. On the table, there are three eggs, a mortar and pestle, and a large wooden bowl with a metal handle. A white cloth hangs over the edge of the table. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to the textures of the different objects. The colors are muted, with lots of browns and grays. The overall effect is one of quiet simplicity.
