"A Forest Floor Still Life With A Snake, Butterflies, Snails And A Grasshopper" and "A Forest Floor Still Life With A Lizard, Butterflies And Snails" are two notable paintings by the Flemish artist Carl Wilhelm de Hamilton (1668–1754). These works exemplify the forest floor still life genre, a subcategory of still life painting that flourished during the 17th century, particularly in Northern Europe. De Hamilton, known for his detailed and realistic depictions of nature, presents in these paintings a rich tapestry of flora and fauna, capturing the intricate ecosystem of the forest floor with scientific accuracy and artistic finesse.

The first painting, featuring a snake amidst various insects and snails, is a testament to the artist's skill in rendering textures and the play of light on different surfaces. The second painting, with a lizard as the central figure, similarly showcases de Hamilton's ability to portray the delicate balance of life within a seemingly chaotic underbrush. Both works are characterized by their vivid detail, from the translucence of insect wings to the moist sheen on snails' shells, set against a backdrop of decaying leaves and organic detritus.

These paintings not only serve as visual records of biodiversity but also reflect the period's fascination with natural science and the study of living organisms. They invite the viewer to contemplate the beauty and fragility of life in its most unguarded moments. The exact dates of creation for these works are not well-documented, but they are consistent with de Hamilton's oeuvre from the late 17th to early 18th centuries.

Carl Wilhelm de Hamilton's contributions to the forest floor still life genre are significant, as they combine both aesthetic appeal and educational value. His paintings are held in high regard for their contribution to the understanding of natural history during a time when the scientific revolution was transforming the way people viewed the natural world. These works remain an important part of the artistic and scientific heritage of the Baroque period.
