Boxed Notecard Set - Rachel Ruysch: Nature into Art
Celebrate the refinement and enduring beauty of Dutch still life painting with this distinguished set of notecards, featuring six masterworks by Rachel Ruysch (Dutch, 1664-1750), one of the most acclaimed flower painters of the Dutch Golden Age. Known for her meticulous technique and sophisticated compositions, Ruysch's paintings capture the ephemeral splendor of nature with remarkable precision and delicacy.
Each card in this set reproduces a different artwork, selected from prominent museum collections around the world, including "Flower Still Life" (c. 1716-1720), "A Still Life of Flowers in a Glass Vase on a Marble Table before a Niche" (1742), "Still Life with Flowers" (1709), and "Still Life of Exotic Flowers on a Marble Ledge" (1735). Also included are "Posy of Flowers, with a Beetle, on a Stone Ledge" (1741) and "Portrait of Rachel Ruysch in her Studio" (1692), painted in collaboration with Michiel van Musscher.
Ideal for personal correspondence or as a thoughtful gift for art enthusiasts, this notecard set offers a glimpse into Ruysch's masterful handling of light, texture, and botanical detail.
Set Includes:
6 blank notecards (6 unique designs).
6 matching envelopes.
Presented in an elegant keepsake box.
