'Floral Still Life', Unknown, Oil on Canvas Painting

About the Item

This 14" x 18" oil on canvas painting depicts a still-life of a backlit flower with buds and leaves. The flower could presumably be of tropical origin as the artist painted this work in a representational style but not fully realistically rendered. The brushstrokes are still noticeable and some areas look unblended or unfinished, adhering to some abstraction. The leaves are more prominent than the one blossom and three flower buds depicted; the tropical attributes are evident in the large, dark green leaves of the plant that surround the bright pink blossom. The buds are adjacent to the bloomed flower, in a bundle, while the leaves extend from the stem/base of the plant, taking up the majority of the canvas in relation to the flower buds/blossom. The still-life appears to be without a base, meaning there is no surface that the plant is placed upon, it is simply positioned in front of a background with light penetrating through the flowers and leaves. The background contains a gradient of color; the bottom of the canvas is a light, muted green, in comparison to the green leaves of the flower, and takes up roughly one third of the canvas while a dark maroon color meets the green in a blended/gradient manner and takes up the remaining 2/3 of the background towards the top of the canvas. The subject matter is simple, yet pleasing to the eye and challenges the normal elements of still-life painting.

    Joran van der Haar Red vases with Tulips 120 x 120 cm ( framed 130 x 130 cm, frame is included in price) oil on canvas The realistic painted "17th century style' bouquets by Joran van der Haar, are always an eye-catcher in our gallery. The colorful bouquets look natural but have a long history of months of meticulous and layered work. It is sometimes difficult to predict when Joran's work can withstand its own "test of criticism". In addition, the layered work with oil paint sometimes also ensures long drying times. Shortening this is undesirable. In 2014 the artist started experimenting and painting with oil paint, flowers and insects soon turned out to be his preference. Again, this was a source of inspiration. The artist about his work: ‘In the Rijksmuseum and Mauritshuis I found the still lifes of Jan Davidsz. de Heem, Jan van Huysum and Ambrosius Bosschaert...
