Flowers in a Black Vase — Fine Art

Flowers in a Black Vase by Odilon Redon shows a gathered set of blooms held upright in a dark vase. The petals read as soft patches of pale colour against a plain ground. Odilon Redon worked with charcoal and pastel, and this fine art print follows that symbolist practice.

The print arrives ready to hang, with a metal hanger fitted to the back that goes straight onto a nail or screw. You do not need a separate frame. The matte surface keeps the pale petals from catching a harsh reflection under a lamp.

It hangs well on a bedroom wall near the foot of the bed, where the dark vase stands out against a pale wall and the small pencil lines stay clear when you sit up in the morning.
