"Sea Bream, a Fishing Basket and Nets on a Wooden Table" is a 17th-century still life painting by Dutch artist Pieter de Putter, known for his detailed and realistic depictions of fish and still life subjects. The painting is an exemplar of the Dutch Golden Age's fascination with marine life and the genre of still life, which flourished during a period of unprecedented economic prosperity and cultural achievement in the Netherlands.

In this work, de Putter showcases his skill in rendering textures and surfaces through the meticulous portrayal of a sea bream, a common motif in Dutch still life paintings, which symbolizes both the country's maritime prowess and the era's interest in naturalism. The fish is typically depicted alongside a fishing basket and nets, with the ensemble arranged on a wooden table, emphasizing the interplay of objects associated with the fishing trade—a vital industry in the Dutch Republic.

The composition is characterized by a keen attention to detail and a subtle use of light and shadow, which not only highlights the artist's technical virtuosity but also imbues the painting with a sense of quietude and contemplation. The choice of subject matter reflects the period's preoccupation with the transience of life and the moral value of simplicity and modesty, themes often explored through the symbolism inherent in still life paintings.

"Sea Bream, a Fishing Basket and Nets on a Wooden Table" is considered an important contribution to the still life genre, demonstrating de Putter's ability to elevate everyday objects into art with philosophical depth. The painting is held in high regard for its aesthetic qualities and as a historical document of 17th-century Dutch culture and society. It remains a significant piece for scholars studying the Dutch Golden Age and the development of still life painting in Europe.
