Jan Jansz. den Uyl was a painter of the Dutch Golden Age. He very much specialized in the form of still life known as the breakfast piece, or, in the elaborate style of painters like den Uyl, banquet pieces (banketjestukken). He also painted landscapes and animal paintings.
Pieter Claesz was a Dutch Golden Age painter of still lifes.
He and Willem Claeszoon Heda, who also worked in Haarlem, were the most important exponents of the "ontbijt" or dinner piece. They painted with subdued, virtually monochromatic palettes, the subtle handling of light and texture being the prime means of expression. Claesz generally chose objects of a more hospitable kind than Heda, although his later work became more colourful and decorative. Claesz's still lifes often suggest allegorical purpose, with skulls serving as reminders of human mortality. The two men founded a distinguished tradition of still life painting in Haarlem. Pieter Claesz was influenced by the artist movement 'Vanitas'.

Benjamin Houlihan is a German painter, sculptor, and artist.
He studied at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art, where he is now a teacher. Since 2010, the artist has been transforming inconspicuous everyday objects, changing their material and size, into larger figures with a suggestive aura. In his wall paintings made with cottage cheese and food dyes, which Houlihan applies with his tongue, he also touches on the theme of painting.
