About the Item
An impressionist still life painting. The seat and back of an antique wooden chair are centered in the composition. On the colorful seat of the chair is balanced a glass vase holding white, red and pink blooms. The background of the painting is softly painted and vague, the majority painted in shades of army and olive green, a wide strip of tan is painted at the right edge of the chair and the upper left corner is painted shades of blue grey and ultramarine.
This painting feels strongly influenced by Henri Matisse's loose and colorful oil paintings, the shape of the chair mimicking Matisse's use of heavy black outlines. Even the subject matter and composition is reminiscent of Matisse's "Woman in a Chair" "Vase of Flowers" and "The Racaille Chair".
Framed in a simple black floating frame
Framed dimensions: 26 x 29 inches
Painting dimensions: 25 x 28 inches
