About the piece

Painted around 1700, this masterful still life by Rachel Ruysch depicts a lush assortment of blooms—including striped tulips, irises, and roses—bursting from a dark vase. The dramatic contrast between the illuminated, colorful flowers and the deep, shadowy background exemplifies the sophistication and technical precision of the Dutch floral tradition, complete with minute details of insects and dew.
