Abraham Mignon : "A Hanging Bouquet of Flowers" (c.1665/1670) Giclee Fine Art Print
( A still life of the Dutch Golden Age by Abraham Mignon....)
A still life of the Dutch Golden Age by Abraham Mignon. The son of German shopkeepers, he was placed under the care and apprenticeship of the still life painter Jacob Marrel at the age of seven, and went on to study under Jan Davidsz de Heem. His style is distinguished by confident draftsmanship; the use of dark backgrounds to enhance bright, vivid colors; and an excellent design sense that took his work to new heights as his compositions became increasingly complex. Baptized in the Calvinist church, he maintained strong religious beliefs throughout his life. Like most Dutch still life painters, he populated his works with myriads of insects, snails and other small creatures, but he had a special penchant for spiders. Hidden in plain sight, they lurk among the flowers; solitary adults resting on webs, colonies of hatchlings descending on single threads. The pleasures of this life, he cautions, are not to be grasped with too much haste.

Abraham Mignon Vase of Flowers - 24" x 32" 100% Hand Painted Oil Painting Reproduction
(Every oil painting of ours is 100% hand painted one brush...)
Every oil painting of ours is 100% hand painted one brushstroke at a time by one of our experienced artists. We have highly skilled and experienced artists who are able to beautifully reproduce any genre of oil painting. Our artists do not use printers to assist in the painting process. Since the oil paintings are completely hand-painted and not machine generated on an assembly line and because different computer screens may have different depictions of colors, there is always a slight variation between the reproduction and the original work of art. As such, each painting cannot be considered as an exact replica of the original painting, however, we can guarantee that our artists will work carefully and pay special attention to the features and details of each oil painting to make the reproduction as close to the original as possible. What we offer is a genuine hand-painted oil painting by an artist on canvas, painted one brushstroke at a time, the same way the masters have painted for centuries.

Abraham Mignon
Abraham Mignon or Minjon, was a Dutch golden age painter, specialized in flower bouquets.
Career
Marrel specialized in flower painting, and found him to be his best pupil. He accompanied Mignon when he moved to the Netherlands about 1660 to work under January Davidszoon de Heem at Utrecht. He died at Utrecht. Besides Merian, his other pupil was Ernst Stuven.
He left two daughters when he died.
Catharina and Anna.
Mignon devoted himself almost exclusively to painting stilleben of flowers, fruit, birds and other still-life, though at times he also attempted portraiture. His flower pieces are marked by careful finish and delicate handling.
His favourite scheme was to introduce red or white roses in the centre of the canvas and to set the whole group of flowers against a dark background. Nowhere can his work be seen to better advantage than at the Dresden Gallery, which contains fifteen of his paintings, twelve of which are signed.
Six of his pictures are at the Louvre, four at the Hermitage, and other examples are to be found at the museums of Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam, Brussels, Munich, Karlsruhe, Brunswick, Kassel, Schwerin, Copenhagen, Warsaw, Lyon, Florence and Turin.
Achievements
-
Marrel"s stepdaughter Maria Sibylla Merian (1647–1717), daughter of the engraver Matthew Merian, who lived with Marrel and thus studied with Mignon, achieved distinction as a flower painter.
