Description
A bouquet of white peonies. Impressionism, impasto still life. White, with pink centers, rich green leaves, and a grayish background; oil on canvas, 50 × 40 cm
White peonies bloom against a grayish background. The centers are a delicate pink, the leaves a rich green; the brushstrokes are impasto and vibrant. The bouquet is full and serene; each flower retains its volume, light, and fragility. White Peonies is simply a bouquet—nothing more, nothing less. The viewer is meant to sense the softness, the festivity, and the fragrance that still lingers in the still life. An original, one of a kind.
