"Bloemenschikster" is an oil painting by the Belgian artist Frans Mortelmans (1865–1936), renowned for his still-life compositions and floral paintings. Created during the late 19th or early 20th century, a period marked by a resurgence of interest in still-life painting in Belgium, "Bloemenschikster" exemplifies Mortelmans' mastery in capturing the delicate interplay of light and color.

The painting depicts a flower arranger, or 'bloemenschikster' in Dutch, immersed in the act of composing a bouquet. The subject is often portrayed with a concentration of detail on the flowers and the play of light, showcasing Mortelmans' skill in rendering the textures and hues of the botanical subjects. His work is characterized by a vibrant palette and a harmonious arrangement of elements that reflect the influence of the Impressionist movement, while also drawing on the rich tradition of Flemish still-life painting.

Frans Mortelmans was a prominent figure in the Antwerp artistic scene, and his work was widely appreciated for its aesthetic appeal and technical proficiency. "Bloemenschikster" is considered one of his significant works, capturing the essence of his artistic legacy. The painting not only highlights Mortelmans' affinity for floral subjects but also serves as a testament to the enduring popularity of still-life painting in Belgian art at the turn of the century.

As with many of Mortelmans' pieces, "Bloemenschikster" likely found its audience among the burgeoning middle class of the time, who favored such intimate and decorative works for their private collections. Today, Mortelmans' paintings can be found in various art museums and private collections, and they continue to be celebrated for their contribution to the genre of still-life painting.
