Vase with Honesty — Fine Art

Vase with Honesty fills a vase with pale seed pods that hold their flat wings. The stems rise and lean across the sheet. Vincent van Gogh painted these dry seed heads with quick strokes of green and grey. Thin white lines outline each pod and the leaves feel stiff against the earthy background.

The fine art frame comes in white, wood, dark wood or black. A white frame keeps the pale pods separate from the wall. A dark wood frame draws the eye to the seed heads. Each frame edge keeps the picture from fading into the paint behind it.

Set this on a dining room wall near the sideboard. You notice the dry seed shapes first when you sit down. The green stems read softer from that distance and the white outlines stay clear.
