NO RESERVE
René Samuel Béguin (1892–1947)
Bouquet of Flowers in a Brown Vase
Oil on canvas
Signed lower right: R. Béguin
Canvas: 55 × 71 cm (approximately)
Framed
A luminous floral still life by Swiss painter René Samuel Béguin, depicting a vibrant bouquet of yellow, cream, and coral blossoms arranged in a glazed brown earthenware vase before a softly illuminated turquoise window. Executed with expressive, confident brushwork and rich impasto, the composition beautifully captures the interplay of warm floral tones against the cool blue-green background, creating a harmonious and atmospheric interior scene.
Although Béguin is best known for his landscapes of the Swiss Jura, lakes, and historic towns, he also produced intimate still lifes that reveal the same sensitivity to color, light, and painterly texture. This work exemplifies his refined handling of oil paint, with lively, sculptural brushstrokes bringing the blossoms to life while maintaining a balanced and elegant composition.
The painting remains in very good vintage condition and is presented in a complementary period frame.
