Impressive flower still life by Joop Stierhout who liked to paint classical flower still lifes. The honour of the delight is left to the flowers, his task was to capture them on canvas. In his early work he also captures fruit and pottery. A harmonious bouquet with vase is sufficient, Stierhout does not need a refined arrangement or light effect. The colour of the flower still lifes complements his cityscapes, as it were. In the large bouquets there remains a balance between detail and totality. The rich gradation is not directly adopted, but subjected to the painter's choice of palette.
Painting is in perfect condition. Frame has some scratches.
