About the piece

Created in 1723 by Jan van Huysum, the preeminent floral painter of the Dutch Golden Age, this masterpiece captures a magnificent variety of blooms in a relief-decorated terra-cotta vase. Van Huysum's incredible precision is evident in the luminous petals and the inclusion of tiny insects and a bird's nest, set against a soft, atmospheric garden background.
