Johannes de Bruyn made his debut as a flower and fruit still life painter in the 19th
century in Utrecht. He was a student of the painter G.J. van Hulstyn. In our pair of flower still lifes, Cornelis Johannes de Bruyn has depicted two bouquets of colorful flowers set in a stone niche. They are delicate, highly detailed, realistic pieces painted in the vein of seventeenth century Old Master works. Each bouquet is arranged in a low glass bowl on a small marble pedestal that placed in the niche. The background shifts from light to dark gray to spotlight the floral displays. Instead of tulips, extremely popular with the height of the Dutch tulip mania, de Bruyn has depicted roses in full bloom. The open rose blooms, painted in a sparkling white color, face the viewer at the center. These roses, interspersed with greenery and other small blue and yellow flowers contrasting with the white blooms, reach out and away from the heart of the arrangements. De Bruyn’s treatment of the vases in this pair of paintings is quite superb, the stems of the flowers seen through the thick glass and water, the reflections of the window and the sunlight caught within the vases are beautifully observed. Set against a simple background these are beautifully composed works that perfectly demonstrate de Bruyn’s exceptional handling of still life. De Bruyn adds small details such as drops of water on the leaves and a few of the leaves are turning brown, effects that help create a realistic scene.
