Louise Moillon's Bowl of Curacao Oranges (1634) Postcard

A classic artwork that has passed into the public domain and makes wonderful gifts and other products. This is one of her typical still lifes, showing a bowl of oranges. Unlike many of her works, which often show many disparate fruits and vegetables, this shows exclusively one item (oranges). Louise Moillon is considered the greatest still-life painter of the 17th century. Born to French Huguenot family, her works are typically with a very dark background and almost always show fruit or vegetables. Even those with people have a strong focus on fresh produce. She is widely seen as one of the great old masters of her time. All of our products are made with large scale images that have been carefully edited to provide the best resolution, colour and detail possible.
