This painting shows a bright window frame filled with pink flowers outside. Inside, a dark vase holds green leaves, and a yellow basket sits on the sill with red fruit. The sky is a flat blue with white clouds, and the table below has two red circles—maybe apples. The artist used thick, flat colors and simple shapes, making everything look bold and flat. The flowers spill over the window like a burst of color. Want to see more work like this? Check out lithography to learn how this print was made.
