Still-life with pewter-ware (1636). A good view of the pewter flagon with spout, of the type favoured on the Continent but not in England. A new feature is the shallow gilded bowl in front of the flagon. Alongside the lemon on the left is what appears to be a rolled-up cone of printed paper. It would have contained pepper and is an object that appears in many of the paintings that have shellfish as an element in the composition.
