Objectinformatie
Stilleven met bloemen in een vaas en een kaketoe
Stilleven met bloemen in een vaas en een kaketoe On a brownish stone table is a brown vase of flowers (including a sunflower with a cut stem, white lily, blue iris, purple-red peony, white-and-red and white-and-purple striped tulips, bellbine, love-in-a-mist, narcissus, blue anemone, marigold, cornflower, orange tigerlily, white iris and convolvulus). The relief decoration of the vase consists of a male and a female figure (holding a palm frond), surrounded by a cannon (on the right), weapons and a male figure trampled on the ground (on the left), also a medallion on the right with an eagle, and one on the left with a lion, with the caption below: `SALIG SEYN DE VREDENMAKERS' (blessed are the peacemakers). On the vase's foot are the words `VREDE MACKT REGT' (peace brings justice). Further to the right a tall gilt cup with a lid and a glass-stoppered bottle, dimly reflecting the studio and the artist at his easel. A white cockatoo is on the lefthand side of the table, on which are also disposed a bunch of red cherries, clusters of red and white grapes, some of them attached to a branch, a small red lobster, a branch of medlars, a nautilus shell and a black-and-white shell. On the right a butterfly and on the left a dragonfly (near the iris). Near the cockatoo are a white feather and a bee. At the left, on a dark-red pedestal, is a dark-red column, partly hidden by brown drapes. Dark background.
