Roses in a Glass Vase is a 1919 oil by Édouard Vuillard, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
The painting depicts a still life of roses in a glass vase, set against a backdrop of a room with a table and a window. The vase is placed on the table, and the roses are arranged in a loose, organic manner. The colors used are muted, with shades of pink, white, and green dominating the palette. In the background, the room's decor is visible, including a tablecloth and a window with curtains. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and calmness, with the soft colors and gentle arrangement of the roses creating a sense of peace.
