Known to contemporaries as "The Snuffler" due to his apparent penchant for rooting around in the undergrowth, Marseus van Schrieck had close ties with the seventeenth-century culture of scientific investigation. This picture of the forest floor bristles with interactions between a lizard, snake, snails, and butterflies, all in the shadow of a poppy. Rather than painting flowers elegantly arranged in a vase, Marseus locates his blooms in a natural setting touched with an element of menace.
