Vases with Flowers 1
Vase cu flori 1
2013 · oil on canvas · 55 × 46 cm
Two vases stand side by side on a table covered with a white cloth: one cobalt blue with a rounded body, the other ochre-green and cylindrical. From them rises a broad bouquet, with white violet-centred flowers at the right, carmine-pink and orange corollas at the centre, and wide green leaves falling heavily to the sides, beyond the frame. The background is a warm yellow-green surface applied in vertical strokes. The paint is thick and the brushwork broad; the contrast between the intense blue of the vase and the green of the ground matters as much as the flowers themselves.
Painted in the studio on Ion Creangă Street 15, Ploiești — the still lifes and flower pieces from 1984 onwards were made there. Established by the family, August 2026.
