Note du spécialiste

In 2007 Mina Gregori endorsed the attribution to Mario Nuzzi (written communication, 1 October 2007). Gregori notes that this still life contains all of the elements typical of the artist: the abundant array of flowers is struck by the dramatic light so favored by post-Caravaggesque artists and the use of the gilt urn sculpted in bas relief with figures recalling classical antiquity are all favorite devices employed by Nuzzi.
