A glass of flowers is a 1811 oil by Michel-Joseph Speeckaert, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
The painting features a bouquet of flowers in a glass vase, set against a dark background. The flowers are predominantly white and pink, with some green leaves and stems visible. The vase is clear and sits on a table or shelf, which is not fully visible. Upon closer inspection, the flowers appear to be arranged in a loose, organic manner, with some petals and leaves spilling over the edges of the vase. The overall effect is one of delicate beauty and subtle color. To learn more about this style of floral painting, explore the works of artist Michel-Joseph Speeckaert.
