"A Roemer, Two Shells, a Peeled Lemon, a Knife and Walnuts on a Draped Table" is a still life painting by Maerten Boelema de Stomme, a Dutch Golden Age artist known for his detailed and realistic depictions of inanimate objects. This work exemplifies the genre of vanitas painting, which flourished in the Netherlands during the 17th century, characterized by its symbolic representation of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure, and the certainty of death. The painting features a carefully arranged composition of objects that held emblematic meanings for contemporary viewers: a roemer (a type of wine glass), indicative of the pleasures of the senses; two shells, which may symbolize wealth or the exotic; a peeled lemon, often associated with the bitter taste of life's disappointments; a knife, possibly signifying the sharpness of death; and walnuts, which could represent the hard shell of the earthly body protecting the immortal soul.

The artwork is notable for its meticulous attention to texture and light, with the reflective surfaces of the glass and the intricate patterns on the shells rendered in exquisite detail. The draped tablecloth adds a sense of depth and luxury to the scene, while also contributing to the overall theme of vanitas through its folds and shadows, which may imply the fleeting nature of time. Maerten Boelema de Stomme's skill in capturing the interplay of light and materiality, as well as his ability to imbue everyday objects with symbolic meaning, makes this painting a significant example of Dutch still life painting.

The exact date of creation for "A Roemer, Two Shells, a Peeled Lemon, a Knife and Walnuts on a Draped Table" is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to the artist's mature period. The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it contributes to the understanding of Northern European still life painting and the cultural context of the 17th century. As with many works of its time, it offers insight into the values, beliefs, and artistic preoccupations of the Dutch Golden Age, serving as both a visual delight and a philosophical meditation on the nature of existence.
