About this work

Artist: Ambrosius Bosschaert (1573–1621)
Year: 1618
Medium: Oil on copper
Original size: 55.5 × 39.5 cm
Collection: Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen
Movement: Dutch Golden Age

A dense bouquet in a glass vase stands in a rounded stone niche, its shadow curving across the inside of the arch, and a single yellow rose lies beside the vase with its head projecting past the sill into the viewer's space. Ambrosius Bosschaert painted it in 1618, late in a career that began in Middelburg, where he was among the first painters anywhere to make flowers a subject in their own right. The architectural frame follows the exact proportions of the panel, so that without its ornate frame the picture could pass for a real recess in a wall; the rose breaking the edge is the trompe-l'oeil clincher. Striped tulips, then a costly rarity, carried an undertone of vanity for Dutch viewers, since the bulbs were objects of speculation. The painting entered the Danish royal collections in the eighteenth century and is in the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.

This print reproduces the whole work, uncropped, from a high-resolution scan of the original. The original is in the public domain.

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The image fills the print at the painting's own proportions; nothing is trimmed to fit a frame.

Is Bouquet of Flowers in a Stone Niche in the public domain?

Yes. Ambrosius Bosschaert (1573–1621) died more than 70 years ago and the work was published before 1929, so the painting itself is public domain. This print is a reproduction made from a high-resolution scan of the original, which is held by Statens Museum for Kunst.

What is it printed on?

Heavyweight matte fine-art paper with pigment inks, made to order in 12×18, 16×24 and 24×36 inches; the two larger sizes are also offered framed. Colours are matched to the scan, not brightened.

When was Bouquet of Flowers in a Stone Niche painted, and in what medium?

Bouquet of Flowers in a Stone Niche dates from 1618 and was made in oil on copper; the original measures 55.5 × 39.5 cm.

What size works above a sofa or bed?

For a standard three-seat sofa or a queen bed, 24×36 inches reads as a single statement piece; 16×24 suits a narrower wall or a pairing. The print's proportions follow the original, so a landscape-format painting is wider than it is tall.
