Vază cu flori is a 1921 by Theodor Pallady, held at Țării Crișurilor Museum.
This painting shows a simple tabletop scene. A dark blue vase holds bright orange and white flowers with green leaves. Next to it sits an open inkwell with a pen, and a loose sheet of paper lies half under a yellow cloth. The background is a dark, slightly blurry window with more flowers and a white curtain. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, giving the paint a raised look. This makes the colors pop, especially the orange flowers against the blue vase. Look up impasto next to see how this technique works in other paintings.
