* NEWLY DESIGNED CUT *

Ambrosius Bosschaert completed the ""Bouquet of Flowers on a Ledge"" in 1619.  He infused his flower bouquets with a sense of wonder. He had an unerring compositional awareness, and delighted in combining an array of flowers of various colours and shapes to create a pleasing and uplifting visual experience.

Here, a spectacular yellow bearded iris and red-and-white striped tulips surmount a bouquet that also contains, among others, roses, snowdrops, blue bells and daffodils.  At the base of the vase lie two shells to the one side and a spider to the other.  A damselfly alighting on the iris and a Red Admiral butterfly on the cyclamen further enliven the composition.

This was the bouquet that wasn't as these flowers could not have all been in bloom at the same time; therefore, and because several of them recur in other paintings by Bosschaert, he must have worked from memory or from drawings he kept in his studio.

Lovely puzzle, quality packaging. Bought for a birthday gift for someone with Parkinsons who is able to manage these thicker cut puzzles.
