Description from the seller
School of the 20th Century — Bouquet in an Ochre Vase
Technique: Gouache on paper.
Dimensions of the work: 41 cm high × 33 cm wide.
The red flowers form the heart of the bouquet, while the blues, purples, and whites fan out toward the edges. The broad, layered brushstrokes suggest the petals and foliage through contrasts of color. The ochre vase, placed on a light ground, provides an anchor for this bustling composition. The freedom of the brushwork and the vigor of the palette evoke an expressive vein of modern still life.
Stylistic cues
Modern still life with post-Impressionist sensitivity, in a vein developed at the beginning of the 20th century. The flowers take shape through the juxtaposition of strokes and colors, with a particularly vivid contrast between reds and blues.
Movement evoked · Post-Impressionism, expressive still life
Stylistic reference period · 1900–1910
Unsigned work.
