A stone cartouche of the Virgin and Child with Saint John is encircled by a garland of flowers in this oil on panel painting by Flemish artist Jan van Kessel the Elder. Butterflies and other insects are scattered throughout the garland, adding to the naturalistic effect.

This oil on panel painting by Jan van Kessel the Elder presents a stone cartouche of the Virgin and Child with Saint John, encircled by a garland of flowers. Van Kessel, a Flemish artist born in Antwerp, was known for his still-life paintings, often depicting flowers, insects, and animals with great detail. His work reflects the influence of his grandfather, Jan Brueghel the Elder, also a painter of floral still lifes. The composition features a symmetrical arrangement of blooms, including tulips, roses, daisies, and other varieties, interwoven with green foliage. Butterflies and other insects are scattered throughout the garland, adding to the naturalistic effect. The stone cartouche in the centre provides a contrasting element, its monochrome tones setting off the colours of the surrounding flowers. The painting is executed with meticulous attention to detail, capturing the textures and forms of the various elements with precision. The dark background enhances the luminosity of the flowers and the subtle gradations of light and shadow.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
