Objects

A still life by candlelight, dried roses and tulips going over in stoneware jugs, fruit and a folded cloth on dark wood.
A cream envelope cropped close in soft daylight, two red wax seals at the edge of the frame and faint ring stains left on the paper.
A glass decanter of red wine on a wooden table in low raking light, with a halved fig, blackberries and pomegranates.
A plum, a halved fig and a red carnation stacked vertically against a deep aubergine ground.
A silver sealing stamp stands upright on a cream envelope with red wax pooled over its face, a cracked wax seal beside it, lit high and soft.
A wedge of plum and a crushed blackberry on rumpled cream linen, purple juice bled into the weave around them, lit hard from the left.
A wooden wristwatch with a deep blue sunburst dial nested in folds of blue velvet, a single highlight raking across the glass.
A corner of cream envelope paper in soft light, a red wax seal pressed at the right edge of the frame.
Looking down on a glass perfume bottle sealed with a disc of red wax, its long soft shadow thrown diagonally across a pale ground.
A perfume bottle, a stick of red sealing wax and a wooden-handled seal laid across a cream envelope in soft daylight.
A halved plum and a halved fig lie on dark wood in a single shaft of light, their cut faces turned up, the rest of the table in shadow.
