Floral Still Life, c.1800-c.1825. Creator: Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os
Floral Still Life, c.1800-c.1825. Georgius van Os painted his flowers in bright colours, with crisp contours and little attention to light and shade, entirely in keeping with the taste of his time. The uniform grey background also contributes to the still life's distinct character. The watercolour can be compared to the still lifes Van Os painted on porcelain in the famous factory in Sevres near Paris

EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite floral still life painting, created by Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os around 1800-1825, showcases an array of vibrant and intricately detailed flowers against a uniform grey background. The Dutch artist, known for his work on porcelain at the famous Sevres factory near Paris, employed bright colors and crisp contours with minimal attention to light and shade, reflecting the artistic preferences of his time. The painting features an assortment of blooms, including carnations, roses, marigolds, and tagetes, each one displayed with meticulous care. A beetle and its dewdrops add a touch of natural curiosity to the composition. The artist's skillful use of pencil and watercolor paint brings out the unique textures and thorns of the various flowers, making each one stand out. This stunning work of art, now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Europe during the 19th century. The still life not only captures the beauty of nature but also invites the viewer to appreciate the delicate intricacies of each flower, from the buds to the thorns. The use of a grey background further emphasizes the vibrant colors and textures of the flowers, making for a visually striking and captivating piece.
