About this work

This painting shows a vase filled with flowers on a dark shelf. The flowers include bright red blooms, small white flowers, and green leaves. The vase has a fancy gold rim and sits slightly off-center. The red flowers look almost like they’re glowing against the dark background. The artist used thick paint to make the petals stand out. Next, look up *impasto* to see how this painting’s texture works.
