# Still-Life [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [MAHU, Cornelis]() - Date: 1601-1650 - Technique: Oil on panel, 31 x 46 cm ## Commentary The painting depicts a still-life with an orange on a pewter plate, a porcelain pitcher, a glass, bread and a box of tobacco on a table. In the late 1620s, the still-life of the Northern school developed a new form under the influence of the painters of the Haarlem school, Pieter Claesz. and Willem Claesz Heda. They inspired numerous Antwerp painters including Cornelis Mahu, who, in this composition, presents us with his version of the "monochrome banquets". ## Related artworks - [Breakfast Still-Life]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
