Take home the first monograph on this female Dutch master in over 70 years.
In the first half of the eighteenth century, Rachel Ruysch (1664–1750) was celebrated across Europe for her sumptuous floral still lifes. Admired for both its artistry and its meticulous depictions of flowers, fruit, and insects, her work was largely overlooked in the centuries following her death. Rachel Ruysch: Nature into Art, and the exhibition it accompanies, introduces today’s audiences to Ruysch’s achievements and explore the pioneering roles of women artists and scientists in the Dutch Republic in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
