Still Life – Fruits and Animals
This white vase was hand blown and hand painted with a design inspired by still life painting, a genre that first flourished in the Netherlands during the early 1600s. The rise of still life painting reflected the increasing urbanisation of societies, which created an emphasis on the home and personal possessions, as well as overseas trade, which brought new varieties of fruit, flowers and animals into Europe.
