Description: 'Still-life with lobster and bread' (circa 1660, oil on canvas, Reiss-Engelhorn Museums, Mannheim, Germany) by Alexander Coosemans (1627-1689, Antwerp), an exceptional Flemish Baroque painter. Coosemans is a pupil of Jan de Heem, a leading still-life artist in the Netherlands, whose painting served as a model for his students. The detailed and realistic lavishness is a trademark of the paintings from the latter half of the seventeenth century. In his works often are featured flowers, fruits, game animals and inanimate subjects, and in keeping with the artistic style of the Baroque Era, they are highly charged with symbolism.
