Stilleven met thee en uien (Still Life with Tea and Onions)

A red THE tea tin and a patterned teal teapot anchor the group, with peanuts spilling from a white mug, red onions, garlic and a striped cup, a butterfly brooch resting on the lace-edged cloth. Papery onion skin, glazed enamel and the dull shells make a quiet symphony of textures. Humble pantry things, gravely observed.
