About this work
A dead partridge hangs upside down by its feet from a red ribbon bow against a plain gray wall, its wings and tail feathers rendered in fine detail. A small snail and a fly rest on the surface beside it, adding to the illusionistic effect. The painting is signed with the initials H.F. and the name Fromantiou, dated 1666, and is held by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
