"Still Life with Mug, Pipe and Books" is a painting by John Frederick Peto, an American trompe-l'œil ("deceive the eye") painter known for his meticulously detailed still lifes that often depicted everyday objects. This particular work is emblematic of Peto's style, which involved the arrangement of various items in a manner that played with perspective and the illusion of reality.

The painting features a collection of objects that might be found on a 19th-century writer's desk or in a scholar's study. Central to the composition is a mug, which is accompanied by a pipe and an assortment of books, suggesting a setting of contemplation or intellectual pursuit. The textures of the ceramic, wood, and paper are rendered with Peto's characteristic attention to detail, inviting viewers to reach out and touch the seemingly tangible objects.

John Frederick Peto, who lived from 1854 to 1907, was often compared to his contemporary William Harnett, another master of the trompe-l'œil genre. While Peto's works were less well-known during his lifetime, they have since gained recognition for their unique contributions to American art and the still life genre. "Still Life with Mug, Pipe and Books" not only exemplifies Peto's skill in creating visual illusions but also serves as a testament to the quiet, reflective moments of 19th-century life.

The painting is part of Peto's broader body of work that has been re-evaluated and celebrated in the context of American art history. It reflects the artist's personal and introspective approach to still life, contrasting with the more commercial and public-facing works of Harnett. Today, Peto's paintings are held in various public and private collections, and they continue to be studied for their complex interplay of reality and illusion, as well as their commentary on the material culture of their time.
