Still Life With Flowers From The 17th Century, Holland
A still life of colorful flowers on an oak panel, painted in the 17th century. Holland, anonymous. The letter I is visible on the back of the panel, probably the sign of the panel maker. Dimensions; 23 x 30.5 cm / 34 x 42 cm (frame) The significance of this type of floral motifs in paintings has a long tradition that begins well before the 17th century. The associations with purity, transience, and mortality are obvious. In the 17th century, the arrival of new exotic cultures further broadened this repertoire of meanings. Where flowers are the predominant motif, in Flower Still Life, however, it is primarily the painter's ability to captivate the viewer with the colorful and varied beauty of nature.
