EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century oil painting, titled "Vase of Flowers" (c1695, ?), is attributed to the renowned Flemish artist Isabella Peeters. The painting showcases an enchanting arrangement of cut flowers, including roses, carnations, and other blooms, artfully displayed in a vase. The still life composition is further enhanced by the presence of cherubs, or amorini, playfully interacting with the flowers. These cherubs, with their ethereal, angelic features, add a whimsical and romantic touch to the piece. Peeters' masterful use of color and brushwork brings the vibrant flowers to life, with the rich reds and whites of the roses and carnations contrasting beautifully against the cooler tones of the vase and background. The painting's close-up perspective invites the viewer to examine the intricate details of each blossom, making it a delight for both the eyes and the mind. This artwork, which hails from Flanders, Belgium, is a testament to the scientific exploration of botany during the seventeenth century. The careful arrangement of the flowers in the vase, along with the inclusion of putti, or putto, reflects the fascination with the natural world that was prevalent during this time. The painting is now a cherished part of the Walters Art Museum's collection and continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and charm.
