Presented in an ornate gilt frame with decorative corner mounts and beaded inner border that perfectly complements the romantic, feminine subject matter. The thickly applied impasto roses show beautiful age-related craquelure — the natural cracking of aged oil paint that develops over decades — adding considerable texture and character to the surface.

The small format, soft palette, and intimate subject matter are characteristic of the French floral still life tradition — a genre beloved by collectors and interior designers for its versatility and timeless appeal. The combination of the painting and its original decorative frame makes this a particularly complete and display-ready piece.

Acquired in Aix-en-Provence. Inside measures 4.5" x 3.5". See less
