Vanitas Flower Collection : The Art of Dutch Golden Age Flower Still Life 127This book introduces the fascinating genre of Vanitas Flower paintings, which emerged in the Dutch Golden Age of the 16th and 17th centuries. These paintings depict various flowers that symbolize the transience of beauty, the futility of worldly pleasures, and the vanity of human achievements. The term Vanitas comes from the Latin phrase 'Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities, all is vanity', which begins the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible. This phrase also inspired the Memento Mori philosophy, which urges people to remember their mortality and live accordingly.In this book, you will learn about the history, culture, and aesthetics of Vanitas Flower, and explore the works and artists of this genre, from the Dutch Golden Age to the present day. You will see how these paintings reflect the social and religious changes of the Dutch Republic, as well as the artistic influences of other countries and regions. You will also discover the hidden meanings and symbols behind the flowers depicted in these paintings, such as roses, tulips, lilies, carnations, sunflowers, and corn ears.[Featured Artist]- Anthony Claesz I- Willem Van Aelst- JAN Davidsz. de Heem- Abraham Hendrickz. van Beyeren- Abraham Mignon- Alexander Adriaenssen- Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder- Johannes Bosschaert- Ambrosius Bosschaert II- Balthasar van der Ast- Christoffel van den Berghe- Rachel RuyschJan- Dirck de Bray- Elias van den Broeck- Hans Gillisz.
