"Still Life with Lobster, Fruit, Champagne and Newspaper" is a notable painting by the American artist William Michael Harnett, created in 1882. Harnett, renowned for his exceptional skill in trompe-l'œil (a French term meaning "deceive the eye"), masterfully employs this technique to create an illusion of three-dimensionality in his still life compositions. This particular work exemplifies his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to render objects with astonishing realism.

The painting features a sumptuous array of items meticulously arranged on a table. At the center lies a bright red lobster, its claws and antennae extending outward, drawing the viewer's eye. Surrounding the lobster are various fruits, including grapes, peaches, and a lemon, each rendered with a lifelike texture and color that showcases Harnett's virtuosity. A bottle of champagne, partially filled glass, and a folded newspaper add to the scene's complexity, suggesting a moment of leisure and indulgence.

Harnett's choice of objects is significant, as they reflect the opulence and material wealth of the late 19th century. The inclusion of the newspaper, with its legible text, not only adds to the realism but also provides a temporal context, anchoring the scene in a specific moment in time. The artist's use of light and shadow further enhances the three-dimensional effect, making the objects appear tangible and within reach.

"Still Life with Lobster, Fruit, Champagne and Newspaper" is a testament to Harnett's mastery of still life painting and his ability to elevate everyday objects into subjects of fine art. The painting is celebrated for its technical brilliance and remains an exemplary piece within the genre of American still life.
