Flores is a 1917 oil by Eliseu Visconti, a Art Nouveau work, held at São Paulo Museum of Art.
This painting showcases a vibrant floral arrangement, with pink flowers taking center stage. The blooms are densely packed, with some facing forward and others angled to the side. The flowers are set against a dark, muted background that helps the colors of the blooms stand out. A closer look reveals the thick, heavy brushstrokes used to create the flowers and leaves. The artist's use of texture adds depth and visual interest to the piece. If you're interested in exploring more works by this artist, you can look up Eliseu Visconti.
