or the early 20th century, within the Art Nouveau and Art Deco context.

This is a charming still life of roses, a work of classical taste, rooted in the 19th-century European floral painting tradition.

The composition features a rich bouquet of polychrome roses, in delicate shades of pink, ivory, cream, and deep red, arranged in dark

vases and resting on a surface covered with a textured drapery, rendered with soft and enveloping brushstrokes.

The artist demonstrates remarkable painterly skill in the rendering of volume, light, and subtle tonal transitions, creating a warm and

harmonious atmosphere.

The oil painting on canvas is signed lower right J. Stappers, a Belgian painter known for his still lifes and floral compositions.

Both the painting and the frame have been professionally and carefully restored.
