The pewter lid of the earthenware jug reflects the face of a woman wearing a white cap: a tiny self-portrait.

Clara Peeters' 'Still Life with Cheeses, Bread, and Drinking Utensils' is an early 17th-century painting on display at the Mauritshuis in The Hague, The Netherlands.
The work, also known as 'Still Life with Cheeses, Almonds, and Pretzels,' is a banquet, a type of food still life that Peeters specialized in, and depicts rich objects such as cheeses, figs, a Chinese dish, and a gilded Venetian glass. Peeters signed the painting on the handle of a richly decorated bridal knife. The pewter lid of the earthenware jug reflects the face of a woman wearing a white cap: a tiny self-portrait.

Short version: A brick structure with cylindrical sections and mirrors, built in a fjord. Fuller description: Seen from a slight distance, across a short wooden bridge, as if floating in the water, Olafur Eliasson's architectural artwork Fjordenhus – the house on the fjord. It is on the water in Vejle Fjord, Denmark. Commissioned by Vejle Kunstmuseum (Art Museum), it comprises four interconnected cylinders with a height of 28 meters. The brickwork and angles are gorgeous, both seen together and individually. The overall structure, seen here, is both bombastic and inviting at the same time. It sort of suggests waves or sails on the water, but at the same time has a slight look of a fortress.
