Paul Gauguin's "Still life with oysters" is a classic example of a still life painting, created in 1876. The artwork depicts a table set with a variety of food items, including oysters, a duck, bread, lemons, and a fruit bowl. The composition is balanced and the colors are rich and warm, creating a sense of abundance and opulence. Gauguin's signature style is evident in the painting's brushwork and the way he captures the light and shadow.
