About this work

This painting shows a small table with four plain objects. A round mirror is open, reflecting nothing. Next to it sits a metal box with a handle, a yellow book or envelope, and a tall blue-green vase holding three wilting flowers—two orange and one yellow. The background is a rough, light-colored wall. The mirror’s empty reflection makes the scene feel quiet and still. The flowers look a little faded, like they’ve been there a while. If you like this simple setup, check out chiaroscuro—it’s a technique that uses strong light and shadow to give objects depth.
