Still Life with Crystal Chandelier - Stillleben mit Kristallluster

The crystal pieces of this lamp, as it lies in direct sunlight, throw wild reflections all over the surrounding objects.
Already bright against the dark background, where the chandelier is brightest, it is covered by an even brighter, less textured object; this lends the excessiveness of light in this picture a certain dramatic, as it does not culminate at the lamp itself, usually an illuminating object, but in a precarious, blunt tin bottle.
