(QF737)
The antique painting "Still Life with Flowers" features a vase of spring flowers, in a post-impressionist style, from the early 20th century.
The artwork depicts two terracotta pots with red and pink flowers, likely geraniums or begonias, arranged on a light surface that creates an elegant chromatic contrast with the neutral and warm background.
The textured and vibrant brushwork enhances the volume of the leaves and petals, lending movement and depth to the composition.
