The large painting that we are pleased to present to you illustrates a garland composed of four groups of flowers, including tulips, roses, daffodils, peonies and daisies, highlighted by the contrast with the monochrome black background, placed around a structure with elegant stone volutes.
The canvas, datable to the first half of the 17th century, belongs to the series of flower garlands, a genre that the artist practised throughout his career, characterised by the precise rendering of botanical species and the characteristic vivacity and brilliance of the colours.
The work, which for its descriptive precision and style fits into the Flemish school of the 17th century, can be attributed to the hand of Frans van Everbroeck, one of the greatest Flemish painters specialised in floral subjects, especially garlands around a central scroll, as in our painting, a pupil in Antwerp of the famous still life painter Joris van Son (Antwerp 1623 - Antwerp 1667).
The painting is pervaded by a sumptuous elegance, given by the movement of the flowers, precisely drawn, and linked together in a kind of melody that unites them in a breath of Baroque taste.
The Van Everbroeck authorship of this still life is supported by stylistic parallels with many of the artist's documented works.
