Still life with ham, herring, oysters, lemon, bread, onions, grapes and roemer on a table

The central mass is a large ham on a plate, with a glass of red wine in a roemer behind it and a small jug nearby, surrounded by a loaf of bread, a lemon, onions, grapes, and a plate of seafood. A white cloth drapes over the front edge of the table, while the arrangement extends across the tabletop in a loose triangular balance that creates depth and negative space to the right. The palette is warm and earthy—ochre, browns, creams—with subtle highlights and reflections that emphasize texture and the realistic rendering typical of Pieter Claesz’s Dutch Golden Age still lifes.
