This work features an exquisite harmony of colors and textures that immediately captures attention. In the center, a smooth-finished, creamy white ceramic vase holds an opulent bouquet of vibrant red flowers. The petals, shades of deep red and luminous orange, are rendered with a precision that evokes both life and the transience of nature. The vase sits on a wooden table, covered in carefully draped dark brown fabric, adding a dimension of contrast that enhances the intensity of the flowers. Next to the vase, a book with a thick black cover is placed, with a green bookmark protruding gracefully, suggesting a pause in reading, an implicit invitation to reflection or contemplation. The soft, precise lighting creates an elegant interplay of shadows, subtly emphasizing volumes and bringing additional depth to the composition. This play of light draws the eye to the delicate details of the green leaves and their structure, balancing the liveliness of the flowers. The artist demonstrates an exceptional mastery of classical technique, combined with a modern sensibility, thus offering a work that is both timeless and contemporary. This makes this painting not only a careful botanical study but also a celebration of the simplicity and beauty found in the everyday. This piece has an attribution mark,
