EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Still Life with Meat and Dead Birds" takes us back to the 17th century, where Christoffel Puytlinck masterfully captures a scene of abundance and mortality. Resting on a sturdy stone plinth, we see an assortment of objects that tell a story of sustenance and transience. At the center lies a leg of sheep or ham, perfectly cooked and ready for consumption. Surrounding it are onions, representing earthy flavors that complement the meat. A knife stands nearby, symbolizing both preparation and potential danger. Yet amidst this feast, death is also present. Several dead roosters and pigeons lay lifeless on the plinth, reminding us of our own mortality in the face of indulgence. The juxtaposition between life-giving foodstuffs and deceased birds creates an intriguing contrast that invites contemplation. Adding freshness to this composition is a basket filled with cucumbers—a refreshing touch amidst all these rich flavors. These related objects create harmony within the still life while showcasing Puytlinck's attention to detail. Painted with oil on canvas, this artwork measures 87 cm in height by 123 cm in width—allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into its intricate details. The "Still Life with Meat and Dead Birds" print from Liszt Collection offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also serves as a reminder of our transient existence amid earthly pleasures.
