Flowers in a Vase (Zinnias) is a 1911 oil by Maurice Prendergast, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting Bouquet, held at Brooklyn Museum.
This painting shows a bouquet of colorful flowers in a vase. The flowers are red, pink, and white, and they're arranged in a loose, organic way. The vase is a muted color, and it's placed on a table or other flat surface. The flowers are the main focus of the painting, and they're depicted in a lot of detail. You can see the individual petals and the way they're arranged in the vase. The background of the painting is a bit blurry, but you can make out some horizontal lines that suggest a table or other surface. The painting is done in a style that's reminiscent of Impressionism, with lots of soft colors and loose brushstrokes. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of Maurice Prendergast.
