About this work

This painting shows a bouquet of flowers in a woven basket. The flowers are colorful and varied, with some facing forward and others turned to the side. The basket is made of thin strips of material, possibly wood or bamboo, and has a rounded shape. The flowers are arranged in a loose, organic way, with some stems and leaves visible among the blooms. The overall effect is one of abundance and vibrancy, with the flowers spilling out of the basket in all directions. The painting is held at the Statens Museum for Kunst.
