About this work

This painting shows a simple still life on a wooden table. There’s a blue vase with a single white flower, maybe a cyclamen, leaning slightly. Next to it sits a small box with a light blue lid, and a dark object—maybe a book or a small tray—on the right. The background is blurry, with dark shapes that look like a window or wall. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the painting texture. The colors are muted, with the blue vase standing out against the softer tones. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint layers create this kind of texture.
