Description
English: The floral still life emerged around 1600, reflecting the great interest of the period in botany. One of the pioneers was Bosschaert. His compositions, painted for royal cabinets of curiosities, represented idealised bouquets, bringing together plants from different seasons. Here, in a terracotta vase, we see illusionistically depicted blooms – both cultivated rarities and meadow flowers. The insects, like the flowers, symbolise the transitoriness of life. Individual plants recur in several paintings, showing that the artist worked partly from sketches or prints.
Svenska: Blomsterstillebenet utvecklades omkring 1600 och speglar tidens starka intresse för botanik. En av pionjärerna var Bosschaert. Hans kompositioner, målade för furstarnas kuriosakabinett, utgjorde idealbuketter där växter från olika årstider sammanförts. I en terrakottavas syns här illusionistiskt avbildade blommor – såväl odlade rariteter som ängsblommor. Liksom blommorna symboliserar insekterna livets förgänglighet. Att enskilda växter återkommer i flera målningar visar att konstnären delvis arbetade efter skisser eller gravyrer.
