This is a delightful still life depicting a bouquet of white and pink peonies in a clear glass vase.

The peony flowers range in color from deep pink to creamy white, with delicate nuances that enhance the softness of the petals.

The leaves are a vivid green, contrasting with the neutral gray-green background.

The dark background provides depth and subtly reflects the colors, conveying harmony and freshness.

The canvas painting is signed lower right by Eschbach, a French painter known for his portraits, seascapes, landscapes, and flower paintings.

Paul André Jean Eschbach (1881-1961) was born in Paris and was a student of the painters Jean-Paul Laurens and Pharaon de Winter.

He exhibited regularly in Paris and at the Salon des Artistes Français, becoming a member.

He won a silver medal in 1907 with the work Après la partie, now in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Cambrai, and a gold medal in 1920.

He taught at the Académie Julian from 1912. Many of this painter's works are held in various French museums.

The painting is presented in a original gilded frame.

The oil paint and frame have been carefully and professionally restored.
