“Flora,” also known as “Saskia as Flora,” is a captivating oil-on-canvas painting created by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn in 1634. This exquisite work, now housed in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, depicts Rembrandt’s beloved wife, Saskia van Uylenburgh, embodying the Roman goddess of spring and flowers. Standing in a grotto, Saskia gazes directly at the viewer, swathed in an extravagant and exotic costume. Her silk and satin attire, adorned with silver embroidery, features long hanging sleeves and a flowing blue mantle. A large pearl earring graces her ear, and a floral headdress crowns her long hair, including a multicolored “broken” tulip. In her hand, she carries a staff adorned with leaves and flowers. The life-size quarter-length portrait exudes elegance and allure, capturing Saskia’s beauty and Rembrandt’s early success as an artist. Inspired by Titian’s painting of Flora, Rembrandt’s portrayal celebrates both myth and reality, intertwining his love for Saskia with the timeless symbolism of spring.
