Why You’ll Love It
This is an exquisite IGMA Artisan Betsey Bradley miniature real oil painting. Hand-painted in oil on canvas, the artwork is a faithful reproduction after Rachel Ruysch's celebrated "A Vase of Flowers," one of the most admired floral still-life compositions of the 17th century. Bradley masterfully recreates Ruysch's work with perfect detail. The painting is presented in an ornate cream-colored wood frame lavishly embellished with baroque-inspired gold gilt scrollwork. A beautiful homage to one of the great masters of floral painting.
Perfect for displaying in a formal parlor, grand salon, manor house, gallery wall, museum room, or Victorian drawing room.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
