Painted by the French artist Germain Ribot around 1860 to 1880, this still life gathers a magpie, partridge, jay, and sparrow beside a basket of oysters, as though laid out on a kitchen floor before cooking. Soft light falls across the wicker basket and plumage, a quiet study in texture typical of the still-life tradition Ribot inherited from his father, the genre painter Théodule-Augustin Ribot. The work is held today at the Cleveland Museum of Art.

This is the rare purchase that looks better in person than online. My daughter recognized Still Life with Dead Birds from her art class and was thrilled.
I would not hand this to someone I disliked. The colors in Still Life with Dead Birds came out muddy and gray on my copy. I would warn anyone thinking about buying here.
Thank you for the honest feedback. We changed carriers in your area after several reports like this one, and we would like to reship your order at no cost to you.
It arrived two days after I ordered, which I did not expect. The clarity of Still Life with Dead Birds makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday. It fits the kitchen like it was made for the space. It has made the kitchen feel finished.
