I would like to thank Dr. Fred Meijer who has given the attribution.
Dr. Meijer thinks the Monogrammist JF was a painter from The Hague, called Johannes Flups.

It is not known whom the Monogrammist JF studied with.
His carefully composed bouquets of flowers, silhouetted against a plain background seem to have been influenced by Hans Bollongier, Ambrosius Bosschaert II and Jacob Marrel.
