About the artist

Jan van Huysum was a well known still life painter that made a name for himself in the Northern Netherlands between the 17th and early 18th centuries, from 1682 until his death in 1749. He gained international fame in his lifetime, largely due to his expertise in painting flower still lifes, although he occasionally ventured into landscapes.

Over time, his style evolved from a focused design seen in his early works to more intricate and elaborate compositions, with his piece "Flowers in a Terracotta Vase" being a prime example of the later style with its light backdrop and surplus of detail.

Born and raised in Amsterdam, his art training came from his father, a still life painter himself, with his first recorded work dating back to 1706. To draw inspiration for his flower paintings, van Huysum frequently visited horticultural hotspots like Haarlem to sketch rare and exotic flowers.

In his lifetime, his work fetched prices of up to 2,000 guilders and attracted the likes of the Duc d’Orléans, William VIII, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel, and Sir Robert Walpole amongst his patrons.
