    This splendid mid-18th-century French oil painting depicts an abundance of blooms emerging from a classical urn. Stylistically, it’s influenced by the oeuvre of eminent flower painter Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer (1636-99).

    Set atop a plinth decorated with cherubs, this colourful array of flora is amplified by a narrow composition. It’s designed to be viewed from below, towering above us with an irresistible spirit. One can imagine it displayed within a Rococo interior, perhaps at a palatial French chateau.

    Monnoyer inspired a generation of followers with his electrifying portrayals of nature’s finest. He coupled exquisite details, accurate rendering, and boundless energy - thus delighting the senses of willing patrons. The artist here is unknown, but it’s evidently by an accomplished hand.

    Held in a later frame.
