Hieronymus Galle the Elder

Two Floral Still Lifes

Oil on canvas, laid down on card. each 48 x 40.5 cm.

These paintings are fragments of a work by Hieronymus Galle the Elder depicting a garland of flowers surrounding a cartouche with the Virgin Mary appearing to Saint Simon Stock, which was sold as a complete work in 1971 (Rasmussen, Copenhagen, 27.-28.4.1971, lot 37; 108 x 87.5 cm; RKD 39843). In the meantime, the painting was broken up and the vases were added to the bouquets.
We would like to thank Dr. Fred Meijer for his support in cataloguing these works.
