Still Life of Apple Blossom is a 1690 oil by Simon Pietersz Verelst, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Ashmolean Museum.
This painting shows a bouquet of flowers, with apple blossoms in the center. The flowers are white and pink, with green leaves. There are also some buds on the stems. The background is dark, which makes the flowers stand out. The flowers are painted in a realistic style, with lots of detail. You can see the texture of the petals and the veins on the leaves. The stems are thin and curved, and they look like they're swaying in the wind. The artist who painted this is Simon Pietersz Verelst.
Simon Pietersz Verelst (1644–c. 1710-1717) was an Anglo-Dutch painter. He is known for outstanding flower and fruit still life paintings.
