Maerten Boelema de Stomme
Maerten Boelema de Stomme (* February 1611 in Leeuwarden , † after 1644) was an important painter of the Dutch Golden Age and a student of Willem Claeszoon Heda .
Boelema called himself "de Stomme" because he was deaf himself. He mainly specialized in still lifes , in which he liked to paint great Romans with white wine, pearly knife handles, peeled lemons and nuts. Usually these objects are shown on a silver plate or directly on a stone plate, which is often decorated with a soft green or dusky pink fabric with a gold fringe.
