This mural is made by Zane Prater for the 'Oude Markten Street Art Takeover' organized by Writer's Block Murals.

The tulip and the Netherlands: a long history, a beautiful flower, and a perfect inspiration! This mural is a typical Zane Prater piece, combining portraiture and botanical art. This history-inspired artwork can be found on the Voorstreek next to the Sint Bonifatius Church.

Zane: The mural is inspired by the fascinating history of the Tulip craze, which swept the Dutch Republic in the 17th century, in which tulips were often bought and sold for the price of a luxurious house. This piece speaks to the real value of the tulip flower, grounded in nature, beauty, and cultural heritage.
