Vase of Flowers — Fine Art

A vase of Flowers by Pierre-Auguste Renoir sets a simple bouquet on a plain surface. Petals and stems show in loose separate touches, with the flowers filling most of the page. The picture stays quiet, with the bloom shapes carrying the image.

This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The matte surface keeps the painted colours from shining under a lamp, and the frame gives the page a solid edge on the wall.

In a dining room, the bouquet reads from the eating table across the wood grain. From the doorway the big flower shapes sit first, and the smaller painted marks come forward when you step closer.
