Yellow Dahlias is a 1927 unspecified by Laura Coombs Hills, a American Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
The painting depicts a still life of yellow dahlias in a vase, set against a gold-colored background. The flowers are arranged in a loose, organic manner, with some facing forward and others turned away from the viewer. The vase is dark-colored and has a simple, rounded shape. The background of the painting is a warm, golden color that complements the yellow of the flowers. The overall effect is one of serenity and elegance, with the flowers and vase arranged in a harmonious composition.
