This magnificent oil painting on board, dating from the first part of the 20th century, is a striking example of Dutch-style still life, evoking the opulent floral compositions of the 18th century. The artwork depicts an abundant bouquet of flowers—roses, peonies, tulips, and other blossoms—arranged with great detail in a graceful vase. The flowers are rendered with lifelike precision, their vibrant colors standing out dramatically against the dark background, creating a rich contrast that enhances their beauty.
On the right, a delicate white butterfly hovers near the bouquet, adding a touch of naturalism and serenity to the scene. This finely executed piece is signed by the artist Vanderman, whose attention to detail and mastery of light and shadow reflect the influence of classical Dutch still life painters. The painting’s overall composition and style, with its refined elegance and lush textures, echo the artistic traditions of the 18th century, while the artist's modern touch brings a timeless quality to the work.
CONDITION: overall good vintage condition with some signs of ages. Please take a close look at the photos.
