Vas cu flori is a 1915 unspecified by Jean Alexandru Steriadi, depicting dianthu caryophyllu, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
A glass vase sits on a rough table, holding a loose bouquet of flowers. The blooms are mostly red and white, with some green leaves mixed in. The background is dark and blurry, making the bright colors pop. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the flowers a textured look. The artist didn’t smooth everything out—it feels quick and lively. Next, look up impasto to see how this technique works.
