Description
Floral Still Life by Hans Bollongier or Boulenger 1600-1645. He was a Still life flower painter from the Dutch Golden Age.
This bouquet may look natural, but tulips, anemones, roses and carnations do not all bloom at the same time. Bollongier nevertheless managed to assemble a balanced composition. The still life was painted shortly after the Dutch stock market crashed in 1637, when many people went bankrupt due to the speculation in tulip bulbs. This festive bouquet may thus refer to the transience of earthly matters. This old painting is from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The painting is in the Public Domain and is free to use with the kind permission of the museum. As this is an old painting there are some age marks and cracks on it.
