Monumental 7ft Dutch Style Floral Still Life Oil Painting c.1920 Hassop Hall

This is a truly magnificent and monumental original still life oil painting, standing an extraordinary circa 7 feet tall and depicting a breath-taking arrangement of flowers in the tradition of the great Dutch Old Masters. Dating to circa 1920–1930, this impressive work was commissioned for / formerly owned by the historic Hassop Hall in Derbyshire, giving the painting a particularly interesting provenance. The composition depicts an abundant arrangement of flowers overflowing from a substantial ornamental urn, dramatically positioned upon a stone pedestal within the architectural surroundings of a grand country residence. The artist has incorporated a wonderful variety of flowers, including tulips, roses and irises, complemented by two butterflies and a charming bird's nest containing eggs. These beautifully observed details are strongly reminiscent of the elaborate floral still-life paintings produced by Dutch and Flemish artists during the 17th and 18th centuries. The sheer scale of the painting gives it tremendous decorative presence. At approximately 7 feet tall, this is very much a statement piece and would look spectacular within a large country house, hotel, restaurant, entrance hall, staircase, commercial interior or substantial period residence. Painted in the early 20th century in the manner of an 18th-century Dutch Old Master, the work is executed in oil on canvas, subsequently laid to board, and is presented within a substantial later gilt gesso moulded frame. A spectacular and highly decorative country-house painting with impressive provenance, exceptional scale and enormous visual impact.
