Study of Flowers is a 1919 unspecified by Auguste Renoir, a Impressionism work, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This painting is a study of flowers, with a big red bloom in the center. The petals are painted in thick, swirly brushstrokes. The flower is surrounded by other blooms and greenery, all in shades of red, pink, and white. The background of the painting is a light tan color, which helps the flowers stand out. The overall effect is one of movement and energy, as if the flowers are swirling around each other. If you like this painting, you might also enjoy the work of Pierre-Auguste Renoir.
Pierre-Auguste Renoir was born on 25 February 1841 in Limoges, the son of a tailor and a seamstress.
