Flowers by a Pond with Frogs is a 1670 oil by Giuseppe Recco, a Flemish Baroque painting work, depicting Tulipa, held at Walters Art Museum.
This painting shows a group of colorful flowers by a pond, with frogs sitting on the ground. The flowers are mostly tulips, and they're painted in shades of yellow, red, white, and purple. The frogs are green and brown, and they're looking up at the flowers. The flowers are arranged in a loose, natural way, as if they're growing in a garden. The frogs are scattered around the base of the flowers, and they add a sense of movement and life to the painting. The background of the painting is dark, which makes the colors of the flowers and frogs stand out even more. The artist who painted this is Giuseppe Recco.
Giuseppe Recco (1634 – 29 May 1695) was an Italian painter in the Baroque style. He specialized in a variety of still lifes.
