About the piece

Painted around 1670, this masterpiece by Jan Davidsz. de Heem exemplifies the height of Dutch Golden Age still life. The composition features a rich variety of flora—including white lilies, striped tulips, and pink roses—interspersed with peaches, berries, and intricate insects like butterflies and a snail, all rendered with luminous precision and masterful light against a deep, moody background.
