Sebastian Stoskopff

Sebastian (or Sébastien) Stoskopff (July 13, 1597 – February 10, 1657) was an Alsatian painter.He is considered one of the most important German still life painters of his time.

His works, which were rediscovered after 1930, portray goblets, cups and especially glasses.The reduction to a few objects, which is characteristic of early still life painting, can again be recognized in Stoskopff's painting.

His chief works hang in his hometown of Strasbourg, but some of the world's most important art museums (the MET, the Louvre, the KHM, the Gemäldegalerie) own paintings by Stoskopff as well.
