About the piece

Painted in 1696 by the Flemish master Gaspar Peeter Verbruggen the Younger, this ornate work depicts an allegorical figure—likely Flora—tending to a monumental vase of flowers. Two cherubic figures assist in the harvest, adding a sense of movement and narrative to the rich, still-life-heavy composition. The work showcases Verbruggen's renowned skill in capturing the delicate textures and vibrant colors of diverse botanical specimens.
