# Still-Life of Flowers [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [HULSDONCK, Jacob van]() - Date: 1601-1650 - Technique: Oil on oak panel, 40 x 28 cm ## Commentary The painting shows a still-life of tulips, carnations, a rose and other flowers in a glass beaker resting on a wooden ledge. In his flower pieces, Hulsdonck favours a mixture of a restricted number of blooms with tulips predominating. Most of them are set against a dark background, and he favoured simple clear glass beakers with prunts in the lower register only, so that the stems of each flower can be followed through to the base. ## Related artworks - [Still-Life]() - [Still-Life]() - [Still-Life]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
