Portrait of Silvana Cenni (1922). Felice Casorati (Italian, 1883–1963). Tempera on canvas.
This symmetrical composition of a seated woman in a white dress is perhaps the best-known of the artist’s works. In it, the careful rendering of volumes results paradoxically in a sense of unreality; this is characteristic of Casorati’s art and it connects him to the metaphysical painters.

This is a 2400 year old marble Pelican’s Foot.
Yep. Sculpted in marble. Of a Mediterranean shell called Pelican’s Foot.
This 9 inch wide and highly detailed reproduction of a shell is a mirrored and much larger version of an actual specimen found on the Grecian coast. This particular sculpture has been hollowed out for libations for religious worship.
