About this work

Artist: Ambrosius Bosschaert (1573–1621)
Year: 1619
Medium: Oil on copper
Original size: 27.9 × 22.9 cm
Collection: Los Angeles County Museum of Art
Movement: Dutch Golden Age

A small glass vase with prunts holds a tulip, a rose, an iris, a yellow fritillary, a daffodil, bluebells, forget-me-nots and lily of the valley, standing on a ledge before an open sky with a hint of a town in the far distance. Insects land on the petals and one crawls toward a fallen carnation; two seashells on the ledge, a cone shell from the Indian Ocean and a painted snail from Cuba, were the kind of exotic goods arriving in Dutch ports through the East and West India companies. Bosschaert painted it on copper in 1619, the year he moved to Breda, and the flowers could not have been painted from a single real bouquet since they bloom at different seasons; he composed from drawings and florilegia. The panel measures under thirty centimetres high. It is in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a gift of Mr and Mrs Edward W. Carter.

This exhibition-poster edition shows the whole work beneath original typography set in-house. The original is in the public domain.

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The exhibition-poster edition sets the complete image above typography designed in-house.

Is Bouquet of Flowers on a Ledge 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 Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

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 on a Ledge painted, and in what medium?

Bouquet of Flowers on a Ledge dates from 1619 and was made in oil on copper; the original measures 27.9 × 22.9 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.
