*
1Although there are a handful of paintings by Bosschaert listed in 18th-, 19th-, and 20th-century auction catalogues that appear similar to this painting in terms of description, medium, and approximate dimensions, the absence of reproductions and lack of later provenance make it difficult to determine whether any of them are indeed the CMA picture.
