Very fine still life  with flowers, beetle, ant, dragonfly and butterfly was executed in 1881 by high-quoted French painter Louis Marie De Schryver ( 1862 - Paris - 1842). 
Shortly after Louis Marie de Schryver’s birth, the Impressionists began using the life of Paris for their artistic compositions.  Everyday life of Paris was not a new subject, but what was introduced during the latter half of the nineteenth century was a growing interest in its fashionable streets and the city people who wandered through them.  As the century came to a close, fashionable cafes, large-scale department stores, and World’s Fairs, such as that of 1900, invited Parisians to step outside of their homes and interact with one another in the fashionable and creative center of the arts.  Artists, such as Louis Marie de Schryver, became intrigued by the life along the streets and certainly with the fashionable upper society.


From the age of 13, he exhibited at the Salon de l’Académie des beaux-arts. He then took the painter Philippe Rousseau as his master.

During the Universal Exhibition of 1879, he won a bronze medal. In 1886, he opened his studio in Paris, rue Pergolèse and then became a member of the Society of French Artists.

He obtained a 3rd class medal in 1890. From 1891, he worked with Gabriel Ferrier.

After winning a gold medal at the 1900 Universal Exhibition, he moved to Neuilly-sur-Seine.

When his mother died (1828-1912), he lived on rue Parmentier, housing his older sister Marie Louise Elisa.

Widower of Marie Angèle Loyant, he married Johanna Feldmuller in Neuilly-sur-Seine in 1915.

He died at his home on rue Stanislas-Meunier on December 9, 1942.
