Chrysanthemums is a 1875 oil by James Tissot, a Impressionism work, held at Clark Art Institute.
This painting shows a woman in a garden, surrounded by flowers. She is wearing a yellow dress and headscarf, and is bending down to touch a plant. The flowers are mostly white and yellow, with some orange and red ones in the background. The woman's face is blurred, but she seems to be looking down at the flowers. The painting is done in oil paint, and the colors are muted but still vibrant. The overall effect is one of serenity and calmness.
