Floral Arrangement in a Glass Vase - Dutch Old Master still life oil painting

Circa 1720

About the Item

This stunning 18th century Dutch Old Master Golden Age floral oil painting is attributed to a circle of Simon Pietersz Verelst. Painted circa 1720 it is a still life floral of a mixed flower arrangement in a glass vase. The flowers include poppies, roses and dahlias a long with foliage. A delicate white butterfly hovers in the upper middle. A bent stem of red sweet peas hangs down to the left, perhaps to remind us that life isn’t perfect and is certainly temporary, so seize the day. The colours and still vibrant and the details superb. This is a really beautiful example of an 18th century Dutch floral still life oil painting. Provenance: Hal O' Nians, London, 1970 WH Patterson, London Condition. Oil on canvas, 26 inches by 23 inches, in good condition. Frame.
