Biography
Rachel Ruysch was a Dutch artist who specialized in
still-life paintings of flowers, one of only three significant women
artists in Dutch Golden Age painting, of whom
Maria van Oosterwijk was also a flower painter, and
Judith Leyster mainly not (the German botanic illustrator
Maria Sybille Merian also moved to Amsterdam).
She was born in The Hague, but moved to Amsterdam when she was
three. Her father Frederik Ruysch, a famous anatomist, and botanist,
was appointed a professor there. He gathered a huge collection of
rarities in his house. She assisted her father decorating the
prepared specimen in a liquor balsamicum with flowers and lace. At
fifteen Ruysch was apprenticed to Willem van Aelst, a prominent
Delft painter, known for his flower paintings. In 1693, she married
a portrait painter, Juriaen Pool (1666-1745), with whom she had ten
children. Her sister Pieternel was married to Jan Munnicks, a young
man who drew flowers in the Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam. Ruysch was
extremely pious.
In 1701 Ruysch was inducted into the painters' guild in The Hague.
Several years later Ruysch was invited to work for the court in
Düsseldorf and serve as court painter to Johann Wilhelm, Elector
Palatine. She remained working for him and his wife from 1708 until
the prince's death in 1716. Also Jan Weenix and Adriaen van der
Werff were invited to deliver paintings, after Eglon van der Neer
died. In 1723 she won the lottery. Ruysch kept painting for her
prominent clients.
Ruysch lived eighty-five years and her dated works establish that
she painted from the time she was a young woman until she was an
octogenarian. About a hundred paintings by her are known. The
background of the paintings are usually dark. Ruysch was also noted
for her paintings of detailed and realistic crystal vases.
