Oil on canvas. 17th-century Neapolitan school. A composition of varied flowers, in light tones, is placed in a vase, black like the background, on a marble base, of which only the lower part is visible, because it is covered by a black fabric, from which only the golden trim stands out, arranged to create a play of curves; on either side of the surface rest two birds, a large pigeon on the left holding a stolen sprig from the composition in its beak, and a red-headed woodpecker on the right. Along the left margin, a landscape opens up, with a tall tree bent under a dark sky, and a city in the background. Restored and relined, the painting is presented in a late 19th-century frame.
