The niche is made of rough stone and has a rounded arch at the top. The flowers are painted in a realistic style, with attention to detail and texture. The colors are muted, with shades of pink, yellow, and green. The background of the niche is dark, which helps the flowers stand out. The painting is a beautiful example of still life art.
