Description from the seller
School of the 20th Century — Roses in the Blue Vase
Technique: Gouache on paper.
Dimensions of the work: 26 cm high × 20.5 cm wide.
Two open roses with cream and pink petals balance two more vividly colored buds. The dark green foliage links the flowers to the vase, whose blue and violet reflections respond to the shadows of the petals. The ochre table and the olive background make the flowers stand out without distracting the eye. This still life sits within an intimate figurative vein, with a tightened composition and careful handling of volumes and reflections.
Stylistic references
Floral still life of intimate facture, in the continuity of early 20th‑century figurative painting. The vase with cool reflections and the olive background give full presence to the pale roses.
Movement evoked · Intimate naturalism, floral still life
Period of stylistic reference · 1900–1910
Unsigned work.
