An early 20th century still life capturing a gathered bouquet of tulips in vivid, confident brushwork. Tonal contrast and saturated color bring energy to the scene:from deep reds and flushed pinks to pale yellows and blue-greens. Meanwhile, the cut crystal vase anchors the composition with remarkable depth and nuance. It’s a standout moment in the piece: beautifully painted with layered transparency, reflections, and a sense of weight.

The work reflects the enduring influence of modern French painting, where everyday subjects meet expressive color and form.

The surface shows some light scratches, as pictured, consistent with age but not distracting from the overall impact.

Style it propped on a shelf or tucked into a layered gallery wall. Unframed, it lends a relaxed, painterly charm that suits interiors with a collected or lived-in aesthetic.
