Black Still Life 

"Black Still Life" is a work by Polish artist Iwo Zaniewski, who was born in 1956. The painting is a still life, a genre of art depicting inanimate objects. The painting is done in a dark, almost monochromatic palette, with the only pops of color coming from the blue of a teapot and the brown of a vase. The work is likely a study in light and shadow, with the objects in the scene seemingly illuminated by a single light source, casting long shadows and highlights. The painting is reminiscent of the work of artists like William Merritt Chase, who were known for their still life paintings. The painting is a testament to Zaniewski's skill as an artist, and his ability to create a visually captivating work using minimal color.
