In this painting, Catherine Holmburg presents a modern interpretation of a seventeenth-century still life on a monumental scale. The painting includes classical subjects, including a vase decorated with figures and the head of a classical sculpture, alongside a cascade of flowers. For the Dutch painters of the past, these still lifes of flowers were ruminations on the transience of beauty, here juxtaposed with the long-lasting and static antiques of a bygone culture.
