Willem van Aelst lived from May 16, 1627 to the year of or after 1683. He was a Dutch artist who specialized in still-life paintings. Mostly known for his paintings of flowers or game. I picked vase of Flowers and a watch because I thought it was elegant and peaceful. The colors are calm and he focused on a variety of different flowers not just one specific type.
