Description: | Signed: yes Description: This picture continues a seventeenth-century Dutch tradition of painting still life subjects. Depicted here are flower and fruit, including gourds, peaches, grapes, poppies, a tulip, delphinium, nasturtium and peony. Brussel excelled at depicting over-ripe plums bursting with juice and butterflies and other insects. Another version of this work was recorded at the Zind-Polsbroek, Amsterdam between 1754-1795 (see Apollo, March 1990). This is essentially an identical work, although there are slight variations in the articulation of individual leaves and the modulation of light on the butterfly upon the tulip. | Subjects: | still life (fruit and flowers) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Brussel, Paul Theodor van (Dutch painter, 1754-1795) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8371... | Go to resource |
