Life and Death
A painting of inanimate objects is a "still life" in some languages (English, German "Stilleben," Dutch "stilleven"), "dead nature" in others (French "nature morte," Italian "natura morta," Spanish "naturaleza muerta").
Georg Flegel (1566-1638), Still Life with Bouquet and Roast Pheasant
