Painting of a terracotta pot of paintbrushes beside a yellow bowl, dark bottles and a pale jug on a dark table, with muted olive tones.

Still Life with Paintbrushes in a Pot

A still life of a terracotta pot holding several paintbrushes stands among a glowing yellow bowl, dark bottles, and a pale grey-glazed jug on a dark table. Muted olive and brown tones and soft drapery in the background give the painting a quiet, contemplative mood.
