Verified profile

The luxuriant bouquet of flowers, made by our painter for Cardinal Federico, is the oldest documented painting of this kind. It is made up of a hundred different species of flowers, some of which are very rare and of great value. From a letter, we know that Brueghel was working on it in 1606 and that he had seen these flowers in the garden of the Archdukes Albert and Isabella in Brussels and that he had wanted to "portray them from the natural".
