Blossoms in a Blue Pitcher / Unknown Artist, (c. Early-to-Mid 20th Century)
Blossoms in a Blue Pitcher / Unknown Artist, (c. Early-to-Mid 20th Century)
A study in dramatic contrast, where delicate spring blossoms emerge from a deep, velvety darkness
Flowering branches, their petals rendered in cool whites and pale pinks, are arranged informally in a simple blue pitcher, their fragile forms seeming to glow against the dark, moody background. The artist works with quick, impressionistic brushstrokes, capturing the fleeting beauty of the blossoms with energy and immediacy rather than precise detail. This is a classic painterly still life, a meditation on transient beauty, its aged surface now covered in a fine web of craquelure that adds to its history and tactile presence.
Medium: Oil on board
Inscriptions: None visible.
Condition: Framed in a vintage gilt wood frame with some wear. The painting has a consistent and stable network of age-related craquelure across the entire surface.
