Titled Still Life with Flowers and a Rabbit, this 1980 mixed media work by celebrated Russian artist Mihail Chemiakin (born 1943) utilizes a complex blend of collage, ink, and watercolor on paper. The composition features a floral-patterned teapot, a tall vase of irises, a lit candle, and a ceramic rabbit, all rendered with the artist's signature metaphysical line work and surrealist flair. The work is signed in ink in the lower right and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity from Magna Gallery, San Francisco, dated November 1, 1985. A notable provenance marker on the reverse is a partial label for the Norfolk Museum of Arts and Sciences (now the Chrysler Museum of Art), suggesting a past exhibition or institutional history.
