About the piece

Painted around 1600 by Flemish pioneer Clara Peeters, this exquisite still life showcases the artist's masterful precision. Vibrant blooms including a striped tulip and delicate daisies are set in a glass beaker against a dramatic dark backdrop, while a small mouse nibbles grain on the stone ledge below, adding a touch of narrative life to the formal composition.
