"Stilleven met rozen en koolblad" (Still Life with Roses and Cabbage Leaf) is a watercolor painting by Gerardina Jacoba van de Sande Bakhuyzen, created between 1836 and 1892. The artwork depicts a cluster of roses in various shades of pink and white, nestled amongst green leaves and a large, curled cabbage leaf. The composition is typical of 19th-century Dutch still life, emphasizing the beauty of everyday objects. Bakhuyzen's meticulous brushstrokes and delicate use of color capture the subtle textures and forms of the flowers and foliage. The painting is a testament to Bakhuyzen's skill as a watercolorist and a celebration of the natural world.
