Still Life of Fruit and Dead Fowl or A Stoneware jug, Fruit, and Dead Game Birds is a c. 1650 oil-on-panel still-life painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Harmen Steenwijck. It features dead birds which are meant to represent mortality and fruits which are meant to convey wealth. These place it between the "ontbijt", and explicit vanitas pieces. Steenwijck was a still-life specialist. Here the perishable luxury fruits convey wealth, contrasting with the beer, which is the drink of the masses
