Still Life

This painting is one of my faves at the Met. It is by Jacob Vasmaer, oil on wood.  Since still life depicts an image of arranged objects this to me seemed like a perfect example.  Not only the arrangement but I remember liking this because of the fact that the flowers are wilted and about to die (reminds me of still life).  I remember not understanding the concept of still life and only paintings that depicted some sort of inaction or death I found applicable to still life and thats why this painting stood out to me.
