Recently acquired by Getty, Jan Davidsz. de Heem’s still life, *Glass Vase with Flowers and Fruit* (about 1673–74), offers a dazzling display of realistic illusion through dynamic composition, vivid color, and a sumptuous arrangement of flowers, fruit, and insects. Join curator Anne Woollett for an exploration of De Heem’s artistic strategies and techniques, the botanical and entomological culture of the Netherlands in the 17th century, and the painting’s contribution to Getty's collection of Dutch and Flemish still lifes.
