Cotton Hat by Bosschaert

This cotton hat is inspired by one of the many joyful flower paintings the Dutch painter Ambrosius Bosschaert painted throughout his life (1573-1621). In this painting, he has visualized over 30 different flower species in a detailed and colourful manner.

However, it is interesting to note that this bouquet is absolutely impossible to gather in real life. The flowers depicted simply can’t blossom in the same season, not to mention the fact that flowers were priceless in the 17th century!
