FAQs

Floral still life paintings gained prominence during the Dutch Golden Age of the 17th century, where flowers symbolised the transience of life. Over subsequent centuries, artists continued to explore botanical subjects, adapting techniques to reflect changing artistic movements from realism to impressionism.

Traditional antique oil paintings are typically created using artist-grade oil paints composed of ground pigments suspended in a drying oil, most commonly linseed oil. These were traditionally applied to stretched woven canvas, wooden panels, or heavy linen substrates.

Authenticating an oil painting involves examining the canvas or panel for age-related characteristics such as craquelure in the paint layer, oxidation of the varnish, and the type of stretcher frames and nails used. Signatures, maker marks, and stretcher stamps also provide crucial clues to the period.

An antique floral painting adds depth and character to contemporary spaces when contrasted against minimalist walls or paired with organic textures. Hanging the piece in a simple, unadorned frame bridges traditional subject matter with modern aesthetic sensibilities.

Antique oil paintings should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading and protected from extreme fluctuations in temperature and humidity, which can cause the canvas and paint to warp or crack. Dusting should be performed gently with a soft, dry brush, avoiding any liquid cleaners.
