15. Still life with bottle of wine, two glasses and a plate with bread and cheese, 1886, Van Gogh Museum, JH1121/F253.
Oil on canvas, unsigned, 38 x 46 cm.

The museum states that 'from a stylistic point of view it is indeed difficult to situate the canvas in Vincent's oeuvre'. X-rays have revealed the portrait of a woman underneath, which has little in common with Van Gogh's work. The still life will be published as by an unknown artist (probably one of the friends of the Van Gogh brothers in Paris) in Louis van Tilborgh and Ella Hendriks' Vincent van Gogh's Paintings, vol. II.
