19th Century Italian Still Life - Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 84 x 104 cm. Composition centered on a large vase with a lush bouquet of assorted flowers, arranged on a table covered with a red cloth. The vivid chromaticism of reds, blues, greens, and whites stands out against a dark background, a resource inherited from the Flemish and Spanish Baroque tradition. Despite the surface damage, the work maintains the expressive and decorative power characteristic of floral still lifes, a genre widely cultivated in the 19th century for its symbolism of abundance and transience.
