專家說明

Jacob van Hulsdonck was born in Antwerp but at an early age was taken to Middleburg where he was to remain for some time before returning to Antwerp. While he is likely to have come into contact with the dominant artistic studio in Middleburg, the Bosschaert studio, it seems that on stylistic grounds that he was never a pupil. Closer affinities can be found in the works of Osias Beert and even Hieronymous Francken, both of whom were working in Antwerp at the beginning of the 17th century, suggesting that Hulsdonck may have worked in their circle before becoming a master in the Guild of St. Luke in 1608.

According to van der Willingen and Meijer (A. van der Willigen and F.G. Meijer, A Dictionary of Dutch and Flemish Still-life Painters Working in Oils, 1525-1725, Leiden 2003, p. 114) this is only one of six signed examples that include a small vase of flowers along with the more traditional bowl or basket of flowers on a wooden table-top.
