On the opposite side of the table is a small bronze vase.

Because of the Netherlands regional location within Europe, bronze was plentiful and valuable. In multiple examples of Jean-Michel Picart’s still lifes the bronze vase is used to display a full bouquet of flowers. Often, these

For my final outcome I wanted to create a garment so the whole way through the project I developed my ideas.
