Still Life with a Turkey Pie by Pieter Claesz (c 1597-1660) oil on panel, 1627. A variety of delicacies are displayed on the table. To show them off to best advantage, the painter arranged the dishes side by side with virtually no overlap. The pie with a stuffed turkey is the most striking composition. The table is seen from slightly above, which is characteristic of early still-life painting.
