## Commentary

Breakfast Still-Life with Oysters c. 1608 Oil on panel, 43 x 54 cm Museo del Prado, Madrid This signed breakfast still-life shows a table seen from above. On the table is a luxurious breakfast presented with expensive tableware. The objects on the table are not arranged as an integrated composition, but just set next to each other without any formal structure, so that the whole gives an impression of multicoloured variety.
