About this work

Artist: Jan van Huysum (1682–1749)
Year: c. 1721
Medium: Oil on panel
Original size: 66.5 × 52 cm
Collection: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam
Movement: Dutch Golden Age

White and blue grapes, a split melon and pomegranate, peaches, plums and a sprig of red currants lie heaped on a marble plinth with a vine and hollyhocks climbing behind them, and a vase of poppies glimpsed in the background. Jan van Huysum painted it around 1721, at the point where his still lifes were growing lighter, more transparent and more theatrical, set against park-like grounds rather than the dark backdrops of the previous century. The arrangement is deliberately precarious; the fruit looks ready to roll off the ledge. Van Huysum was the most expensive still-life painter in Europe in his lifetime and guarded his glazing technique so closely that he admitted no one to his studio. The panel hangs in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, on display in the first-floor galleries, as a late flowering of the Dutch fruit piece.

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 Still Life with Flowers and Fruit in the public domain?

Yes. Jan van Huysum (1682–1749) 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 Rijksmuseum.

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 Still Life with Flowers and Fruit painted, and in what medium?

Still Life with Flowers and Fruit dates from c. 1721 and was made in oil on panel; the original measures 66.5 × 52 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.
