Still Life with Flowers 1673

Ottmar Elliger's "Still Life with Flowers," painted in 1673, showcases the artist's mastery of the Dutch still life genre. The painting features a vibrant arrangement of flowers, including tulips, irises, and roses, in a glass vase on a marble ledge. The delicate rendering of the petals and the inclusion of butterflies and other insects contribute to the overall sense of realism and beauty. This work is a testament to Elliger's ability to capture the transient beauty of nature, making it a timeless example of 17th-century Dutch still life painting.
