UYL, Jan Jansz. den, the Elder
(b. ca. 1595, Kampen, d. 1639, Amsterdam)

Still-Life

c. 1635
Oil on oak panel, 35 x 32 cm
Private collection

The picture shows a still-life of a silver tazza and a bread roll on a pewter plate. In the centre of the tazza, the panel is signed with den Uyl's signature motif of an owl, which played on the Dutch work for owl "uil," and was incorporated into almost all of his known works.
