Still-Life with Poppy, Insects, and Reptiles
by MARSEUS VAN SCHRIECK, Otto, Oil on canvas, 68 x 53 cm
The main motif of the painting is a flourishing poppy plant, with large leaves and buds, an at the top a red flower in full bloom. Due to the presence of insects and reptiles the term “still-life” is not appropriate for such a picture, it is in fact a nature study.
