Bloemstuk 1778 - 1838

Anthonie van den Bos's "Bloemstuk" is an impressive black and white print showcasing a still life of various flowers, including a prominent dahlia, with a butterfly and other insects. The use of light and shadow highlights the intricate details of the flowers, creating a sense of depth and realism. The composition, with the flowers spilling out of the vase, suggests a sense of abundance and nature's bounty. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to van den Bos's skill in capturing the beauty of the natural world.
