Modern Baroque still life: Dutch bouquet on Delft blue vase

by Studio Pieternel

Exclusive design for Werk aan de Muur / Art Heroes

Still life from the series: Modern classic Delft blue

This painting shows an exuberant and colourful floral still life in a style of the Dutch Masters of the Baroque period (including Jan van Huysem), combined with a modern, deep colour palette.

The style is Baroque Still Life or Flemish/Holland Flower Still Life, characterised by the dramatic lighting and abundance of different flower types.

The palette is rich and saturated. A deep night blue forms the intense background, making the bright colours of the flowers stand out: vibrant fuchsia pink, bright lime green, warm orange, deep purple and soft salmon pink.

The vase is executed in a traditional Delft Blue pattern with Dutch windmills.

Flowers: The arrangement is a fantasy bouquet of roses, irises, tulips and various branches, all in full bloom.

Applications: This striking work of art is a real eye-catcher. It is perfect for:

A statement piece in a modern or eclectic living room.

Adding depth and colour to a minimalist space.

A hotel lobby or chic office that could use a touch of history and drama.

It is a powerful and bold ode to classical painting, ideal for lovers of historical drama and rich colours.
