"Still Life with Flowers in a Glass Vase," by Jan Davidsz. de Heem (1650-1683) DIMENSIONS • 9" x 12" (Image: 7" x 10.5") • 12" x 16" (Image: 9.25" x 14") • 16" x 20" (Image: 11.25" x 17") • 20" x 30" (Image: 16" x 24.13") • 24" x 36" (Image: 19" x 28.69") Archival Inkjet on Fine Art Paper Smooth Surface - Matte Finish - Inset Borders ABOUT THE ARTWORK In 1909 German art historian Wilhelm von Bode wrote that “…we find with de Heem that genuinely Dutch, loving interest for nature, for the peculiarity of every plant and every fruit, for form and appearance, and the most sedulous rendering of the impressions won.” One of the most celebrated still life artists of his time, de Heem’s works are characterized by their accuracy, brilliance and harmony of color, and use of allegorical elements to illustrate moral and spiritual principles. The son of painter David de Heem the Elder, he was born into an artistic family in Utrecht, but resided for much of his career in Antwerp, where he was influenced by Jan Brueghel and Daniel Seghers. Around 1659-1666 he collaborated with Jan Vermeer van Utrecht on a portrait of Prince William III surrounded by a cartouche of flowers, which sold for 2,000 guilders; one of the highest prices paid for a painting during the Dutch Golden Age. His commercial success allowed him to train several noteworthy apprentices, including Abraham Mignon, Andries Benedetti and Alexander Coosemans, and well as his sons Cornelis and Jan. ART-CENTRIC DESIGN ----------------------------- Vintage art is not standardized. The original works are usually too long, or too short, to neatly fill a store-bought frame. Most shops arbitrarily crop the artwork to match, leading to claustrophobic prints with missing or partial elements. These modifications — sometimes trivial, sometimes ludicrous — are not always shown in the product photos. We believe that the purpose of art is not to fill a frame; it is the purpose of a frame to showcase the art. Our prints have inset borders that make up any differences in proportion between the artwork and a standard frame, so that you can experience the art as the artist intended. They look sharp in beveled mats, may be float mounted, or inserted directly into standard frames; the borders providing a mat-like accent around the image. There are many styles from which to choose. Framing is a fun, creative process that enhances the artwork and livens your space for years to come. Should you like any advice, feel free to reach out. CUSTOMIZATION AND IMAGE REQUESTS ----------------------------- We are happy to customize our prints to fit your frame. Borderless prints may require the artwork to be cropped to fit a new aspect ratio. In such cases, we will provide a mockup to ensure that the final product meets with your approval. If you’re looking for an artwork that is not in our catalog, feel free to ask if we can provide it. We will print any public domain or openly licensed image that is available in high resolution. MUSEUM QUALITY ----------------------------- Giclée process prints are the gold standard in fine art reproduction. We use a matte finish, cotton fiber paper to maximize detail while eliminating glare. Our prints display a wide color gamut, deep blacks and beautiful tonal transitions. Produced using only archival materials, they will not fade or yellow, but maintain their original quality for as long as you own them. HANDMADE DECLARATION ----------------------------- To assure artistic quality, all of our production and design is strictly in-house. Every print has been proofed, calibrated and inspected for defects. We do not drop ship, resell or make use of third-party production partners. SHIPPING AND PACKAGING ----------------------------- All orders ship within one business day via USPS First Class, Priority Mail or Priority Mail Express. Sizes 9” x 12” and 12” x 16” ship in a flat configuration, unless combined with larger prints, which require tubes. We will replace any lost or damaged items at no expense to you. HAPPINESS GUARANTEE ----------------------------- We will promptly address any issues that may arise with your order.

Michael Klein, American realist painter, 1980 currently living and working in Argentina. His artwork, meticulously planned and executed, shows a wonderful mastery of subtle color and tone control which belies his young age.
Many Dutch still lifes can be read as more than just brilliant illusionistic representations of nature. Mignon’s fruit – once luscious and beautiful but now spoiled and inedible – is typical of these sorts of vanitas paintings. They were designed to recall Christian teachings on the brevity of life and the urgent need to focus on lasting spiritual matters rather than fleeting earthly pleasures, reminding the viewer that eating could easily lead to sin.
