Flowers in a roemer with a butterfly and a bumble bee

The painting depicts a lush bouquet arranged in a transparent roemer vase against a dark background, with a wide variety of flowers including pink and white blossoms, red and orange blooms, blue accents, and rich green foliage, and a butterfly and a bumble bee among the flowers. The composition is vertical and exuberant, with stems and petals curving and crossing to create a dynamic, full-bodied cluster that sits atop a decorative base. The work displays Roelant Savery’s meticulous, naturalistic still-life style—bright, precise brushwork, high color contrasts, and detailed rendering of petals, leaves, and insects typical of early 17th-century Dutch-Flemish flower pieces.
