Still Life with a Lobster and a Silver Cup

Antwerp’s richest table, in lobster red.

What

A lobster, a silver cup, glasses of wine and fruit heaped on a table in de Heem’s lavish Antwerp manner.

Why

De Heem moved from Leiden to Antwerp for its luxuries and its buyers, and became the master of the sumptuous still life.

Notice

The lobster’s shell, a red loud enough to stand against the silver.

“More is a style, when it is done this well.”
