"Vanitas-stilleben Mit Globus" is a notable work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Cornelis Cruys, who was active during the 17th century. This painting is an example of a vanitas, a genre of still-life painting that includes symbolic objects designed to remind the viewer of the transience of life, the futility of pleasure, and the certainty of death. The genre was particularly popular in the Netherlands during the early 17th century.

The painting's title, which translates to "Vanitas Still Life with Globe" in English, suggests that it features a globe among other objects, which together convey the vanitas theme. Typical of the genre, such paintings often include symbols like skulls (representing mortality), ripe fruit (decay), bubbles (the brevity of life and suddenness of death), smoke, watches, and hourglasses (the passage of time), and books or musical instruments (the fleeting nature of knowledge and pleasure).

Cruys's work would have been intended to offer a moral lesson to its viewers, encouraging them to reflect on the impermanence of worldly goods and the importance of living a life mindful of one's spiritual welfare. The inclusion of a globe in this painting might also suggest the vanity of worldly achievements and the expansive but transient nature of earthly power and exploration.

As an artist, Cornelis Cruys is less well-known than some of his contemporaries, and as such, detailed information about his life and oeuvre, including the specific painting "Vanitas-stilleben Mit Globus," may be limited. However, the work itself, by virtue of its genre and the period in which it was created, is representative of the broader cultural and artistic concerns of the Dutch Golden Age, a period marked by great interest in the exploration of moral and philosophical themes through the medium of painting.
