Many of the flowers in this painting may also be found in another work by Simon Hardimé.1 A very similar composition is found in York Art Gallery, in a canvas catalogued as Studio of Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer (Simon Hardimé's great influencer), though which in all probability is also by Simon.2
We are grateful to Dr Fred G. Meijer for his help in the cataloguing of this lot and for his endorsement of the attribution to Simon Hardimé, on the basis of digital images.
