A still life showing a traditional Delft blue lidded vase with beautiful yellow tulips. The vase is placed on an old vintage wooden chest with a rusted latch. Delft Blue was traditionally made in Delft and was very popular between 1650 and 1750, so there were hundreds of ceramic manufactories in Delft. Today they are collectors' pieces and still enchant with their detailed beautiful patterns in blue and white. The lidded vases are special because they can be placed without flowers as a beautiful decoration with a lid. The yellow of the tulips in the picture matches the blue of the vase very nicely. The vintage chest and the "shabby" wall in the background give the picture a nostalgic-romantic look.
The picture is also available in another version (Delft Blue Vase with Yellow Tulips on Chest II).
