Description: | At some point in this painting's history, someone attributed it to Jan van Os, the successful Dutch flower painter. His name appears at the lower right of the canvas followed by the Latin word 'pinxit', meaning 'painted', to show that van Os made the work. Experts have since decided that this is a false attribution. In comparison with other works by this artist, the painting does not have the same vigour and dynamism. The signature may have been added by the imitator-artist or by a dealer at a later date, hoping to raise the sale price. | Subjects: | still life (flowers) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Os, Jan van (Dutch painter and poet, 1744-1808) Æ Attributed to manner of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8855... | Go to resource |
