Question

One of these objects sitting in front of a silver plate on a shelf is one of many symbols of affluence in the background of Quentin Matsys's The Money Changer and his Wife. One of them is held by a contented, long-haired two-year-old Raoul Levert in one of the final paintings by Vincent van Gogh. Camille Lefèvre designed a pair of oval galleries for a Paris museum named (-5[1])for these objects. (15[1])These objects and (*) flowers are the brightest elements at the top edge of a painting in which some of them are occluded by a cloud that Mercury pokes with his caduceus. (10[1])Four of these expensive, imported objects sit on the sideboard and windowsill at the left (-5[1])of the Arnolfini Wedding. These objects' similarity to the orbs on the Medici coat of arms (10[1])may be why Sandro Botticelli set Primavera in a grove of trees (-5[1])that grow, for 10 points, what citrus fruit? ■END■ (10[3])

ANSWER: oranges [accept The Child with an Orange or L'Enfant a l'Orange; accept the Musée de l'Orangerie or the Orangery Museum; prompt on citrus fruit before “citrus”] (Camille Lefèvre's galleries at the Musée de l'Orangerie were designed to display Claude Monet's Water Lilies paintings.)
