    Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The first monograph in over 70 years on the celebrated female protagonist of Dutch floral paintingWinner of Gold Medal in Art from the 2024 Foreword INDIES Book Awards.Winner of the ARLIS/NA 2024 George Wittenborn Memorial Book Award.At the end of the 17th century and beginning of the 18th, Rachel Ruysch was celebrated across Europe for her sumptuous floral still lifes, admired both for their artistry and for their accurate depictions of flowers, fruit and insects. Often placed on stone ledges and against dark backgrounds, her sumptuous bouquets seem to spill over with all manner of colorful flowers and plants, as bees and butterflies flit to and from their petals. Ruyschs star faded after the close of the Dutch Golden Age, but late 20th- and early 21st-century interest in women artists has returned her to the forefront of the art historical canon.Nature into Art introduces todays audiences to Ruyschs achievements while also exploring the pioneering role of women artists and scientists in the Dutch Republic in the 17th and 18th centuries. Brilliantly illustrated with detailed reproductions of Ruyschs intricate paintings, the essays touch upon Ruyschs career and her immediate legacy while also widening their scope to consider the role of botany in the early modern era and the storied tradition of botanical illustration. The catalog also includes an index of the various flora and fauna depicted within Ruyschs work, which feature both native and nonnative species.Rachel Ruysch (16641750) produced hundreds of the floral still lifes for which she is best known. She was an apprentice in the studio of Willem van Aelst and the daughter of famed scientist Frederick Ruysch, meaning she had access to a wider world of Dutch flower painters and botanists. From 1708 until 1716 she served as court painter to Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

The first monograph in over 70 years on the celebrated female protagonist of Dutch floral paintingWinner of Gold Medal in Art from the 2024 Foreword INDIES Book Awards.Winner of the ARLIS/NA 2024 George Wittenborn Memorial Book Award.At the end of the 17th century and beginning of the 18th, Rachel Ruysch was celebrated across Europe for her sumptuous floral still lifes, admired both for their artistry and for their accurate depictions of flowers, fruit and insects. Often placed on stone ledges and against dark backgrounds, her sumptuous bouquets seem to spill over with all manner of colorful flowers and plants, as bees and butterflies flit to and from their petals. Ruyschs star faded after the close of the Dutch Golden Age, but late 20th- and early 21st-century interest in women artists has returned her to the forefront of the art historical canon.Nature into Art introduces todays audiences to Ruyschs achievements while also exploring the pioneering role of women artists and scientists in the Dutch Republic in the 17th and 18th centuries. Brilliantly illustrated with detailed reproductions of Ruyschs intricate paintings, the essays touch upon Ruyschs career and her immediate legacy while also widening their scope to consider the role of botany in the early modern era and the storied tradition of botanical illustration. The catalog also includes an index of the various flora and fauna depicted within Ruyschs work, which feature both native and nonnative species.Rachel Ruysch (16641750) produced hundreds of the floral still lifes for which she is best known. She was an apprentice in the studio of Willem van Aelst and the daughter of famed scientist Frederick Ruysch, meaning she had access to a wider world of Dutch flower painters and botanists. From 1708 until 1716 she served as court painter to Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine. This item is printed on demand.
