Still Life with Flowers and Nuts c. 1830

Anthony Oberman's "Still Life with Flowers and Nuts," painted around 1830, showcases a vibrant arrangement of flowers in a terracotta pot. The composition features a variety of blooms, including tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, and roses, arranged with meticulous detail. The artist's skilled brushstrokes create a sense of realism and lifelike texture in the petals and leaves, capturing the delicate beauty of nature. A single walnut and a small bud lay in the foreground, adding a sense of quietude to the overall composition. The artwork is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offering a glimpse into the artistry of Dutch still life painting in the 19th century.
