Chrysanthemums
1917

Oil painting of a vibrant bouquet of assorted flowers in a green vase, set against a dark, impressionistic background. The flowers, depicted in various stages of bloom, showcase a palette of reds, yellows, pinks, and whites with lush green foliage interspersed throughout. The brushwork is loose and expressive, suggesting the texture and vitality of the blossoms. The painting is signed in the lower right corner.
