We create our paintings with museum quality and covering the highest academic standards. Once we get your order, it will be entirely hand-painted with oil on canvas. All the materials we use are the highest level, being totally artist graded painting materials and linen canvas.

We will add 1.6" (4 cm) additional blank canvas all over the painting for stretching.

High quality and detailing in every inch are time consuming. The reproduction of Jan Frans van Dael also needs time to dry in order to be completely ready for shipping, as this is crucial to not be damaged during transportation.
Based on the size, level of detail and complexity we need 8-9 weeks to complete the process.

In case the delivery date needs to be extended in time, or we are overloaded with requests, there will be an email sent to you sharing the new timelines of production and delivery.

TOPofART wants to remind you to keep patient, in order to get you the highest quality, being our mission to fulfill your expectations.

We not stretch and frame our oil paintings due to several reasons:
Painting reproduction is a high quality expensive product, which we cannot risk to damage by sending it being stretched.
Also, there are postal restrictions, regarding the size of the shipment.
Additionally, due to the dimensions of the stretched canvas, the shipment price may exceed the price of the product itself.

You can stretch and frame your painting in your local frame-shop.

Once the painting Vase of Flowers, Grapes and Peaches is ready and dry, it will be shipped to your delivery address. The canvas will be rolled-up in a secure postal tube.

The paintings we create are only of museum quality. Our academy graduated artists will never allow a compromise in the quality and detail of the ordered painting. TOPofART do not work, and will never allow ourselves to work with low quality studios from the Far East. We are based in Europe, and quality is our highest priority.

Jan Frans van Dael’s "Vase of Flowers, Grapes and Peaches" from 1810 is a visual feast, almost dizzying in its splendor. You could call it a bouquet of decadence, but that hardly seems to do it justice. The floral arrangement practically bursts off the canvas - vibrant poppies, tulips, roses, and irises all competing for your attention, each flower more lavish than the last. And they’re not just sitting in the vase, no. They spill over, lean out, and practically shout at you from their pedestal. This isn't a shy still life. It's flamboyant. Luxurious. Like a garden party frozen in time, where the blooms are the guests of honor.

The color palette? A riot. Crimson reds, soft pinks, sunny yellows, deep greens - it’s all there, yet somehow it doesn’t overwhelm. Van Dael balances these hues with the precision of a tightrope walker, ensuring that no one shade steals the show. The soft textures of the petals contrast with the harder, waxy finish of the grapes and peaches casually nestled at the base of the scene - a reminder that, oh yes, fruits too can join the party.

Technique-wise, Van Dael is meticulous. Every petal, leaf, and grape is so finely detailed, it's like you could reach out and feel the velvety texture or pluck a peach right from the canvas. The shadows are soft, and yet the light hits just so - illuminating certain blooms while others lurk in the background, creating depth and drama. The whole composition is carefully orchestrated chaos, an explosion of nature’s excess, but grounded by the classical vase and pedestal - almost like it’s trying to contain itself but failing spectacularly.
