    Eyeballing this interesting still life nut cant figure out the signature so need some help. I think its a Greek signature or such but not sure. Looks like a artist studio to me because of the brushes on the table, or was he or she a sculpture artist? Can somebody maybe help or figure out who the artist is?

    Nice painting, Chantal.
    Last name Vasquero? If so, a Spanish name.

    What an interesting array of objects. I would think meant to depict artist's studio too, given brushes.

    I think it is depicting a porcelain painter's work area, as the bust is ready to paint and completed objects are around. Agreeing with previous comments, just expanding.

    I think the objects are there to be used in still life paintings, or as inspiration. They look too diverse in style and era to have been made by one person.
    It looks like the bust has just been taken out of a box, where it was wrapped in textile. There is also a French looking tureen, a very nice Chinoiserie vase, some brass candlesticks. The brush pot looks like an old apothecary jar missing a lid.
    And the Baroque/Rococo style plinth of the saint looks very Iberian:
