the later development of the genre, the devotional image is replaced by other subjects such as portraits, mythological subjects and allegorical scenes. The two garland paintings in the Prado have a devotional theme in the middle of the garland. The two garland paintings in the National Museum in Warsaw contain respectively portraits of a painter holding a palette and a woman reading. Like his master van Son these garland paintings consist of fruits or a combination of fruit and flowers with the upper part being made up of flowers and the lower part of fruit or vice versa. The fruits and flowers in these compositions are bunched together in groups that are attached to sculptural frames.
