On March 20 the astronomical spring arrived. After winter, we impatiently look forward to more vivid colours. However, you do not have to wait the whole year for spring - flowers immortalized on canvas can accompany us every day. In our offer you can find several examples of still life with flowers.
Flowers are one of the most important motifs in the history of painting. Already in representations from Ancient Egypt we can observe a wealth of floral solutions - a particularly important plant at that time was the lotus, which symbolized the sun. In Pompeian painting, Flora gracefully collects flower buds in her basket. In Baroque paintings, still lives with flowers often become a symbol of the fragility of mortal life. What is interesting, at some point in the 17th century in Holland there was a huge increase in the price of tulips, this phenomenon is referred to today as 'tulip fever', these flowers became a symbol of luxury, they were often depicted in paintings. Such a huge price increase eventually led to a speculative bubble that ended in a crash in 1637.
The variety of floral colours can delight, thanks to it there should also be no problem with matching the colour of the painting with flowers to the interior. It is safe to say that floral motifs are a certainty in the world of interior design. In our offer you can find both paintings with flowers in the offer of old art (they will be more suitable for classic interiors) and the latest one (for modern flats). Collage can also be an interesting choice - Augustynkaa combines paintings of old masters with modernity (for example: Flowers by Czachórski).
