Twee trofeeën van groente, gevogelte en keukengerei 1866

Michel Liénard's 1866 etching, *Twee trofeeën van groente, gevogelte en keukengerei*, displays two distinct vertical arrangements of objects. On the left, a dead bird hangs from a central pole, interspersed with various kitchen implements. To the right, a grouping of vegetables and a bird in flight, with the use of delicate lines and hatching. Liénard's meticulous attention to detail and the interplay between natural and man-made elements highlight the artistry of everyday objects. These intricate compositions are reminiscent of 17th-century still-life traditions, yet imbued with a refined, almost scientific observation.
