About this artwork
This vibrant still life depicts a lavish bouquet of various wildflowers, including daisies and anemones, arranged in a simple blue vase. It is characteristic of Van Gogh's prolific period of flower painting during his time in Paris.
Did you know?
Van Gogh painted numerous flower still lifes during his time in Paris (1886-1888), often using them to experiment with color and brushwork. These studies were not only exercises but also economical ways to decorate his studio or exchange with other artists. The intensity of color and energetic brushstrokes in "Vase with Daisies and Anemones" reflect his evolving Post-Impressionist style.
