This vibrant still life captures a lush pot of red geraniums set on a stone pedestal in what appears to be a sunny conservatory or greenhouse. The artist masterfully conveys the interplay of light, shadow, and rich foliage, using energetic brushstrokes and a bright, harmonious palette. The composition balances the solid geometry of the stone base with the organic flow of the plants, creating a scene that feels both spontaneous and meticulously observed. A brilliant example of Alexander Michael’s expressive approach to floral subjects. Painted with oil on board and framed in a wooden gilded frame. Signed lower left. An ideal piece for admirers of expressive floral art and vibrant interior decor.

Alexander Michael (1939-2024) was a German landscape, still life and architectural painter. His paintings can be stylistically assigned to Impressionism or a late Impressionist style. His loose painting style, applied with a sure hand, creates a lively and atmospheric effect with visible brushstrokes and bright colors. The light conditions, color tones and the artist's subjective perception are characteristic of his works.
