Etruscan Vase with Flowers (1900–1910)

Odilon Redon (French, 1840–1916)

A delicate Etruscan vase overflows with vibrant blooms, their petals soft yet electric against the muted background. The flowers seem to pulse with quiet energy, as if holding secrets just beyond reach.
Field Of Blossoms (1927)

William Henry Holmes (American, 1846–1933)

A sea of wildflowers stretches under open sky, petals trembling in the breeze. The colors blur where earth meets horizon—no path, no fence, just this unchecked bloom. You can almost hear stems rustling, smell the damp green beneath the blossoms. Spring here feels endless.
Ophelia (1906)

Odilon Redon (French, 1840–1916)

Ophelia floats, pale among the water lilies. Her hair fans out like dark roots, tangled with blossoms. The pond swallows her slowly—petals drift where breath should be. Shakespeare’s drowned girl becomes weightless here, sinking through green shadows into something quieter than sleep.
Flowers in a Vase (c. 1910)

Odilon Redon (French, 1840–1916)

Soft petals blur into dreamlike hues, floating weightless above the vase. The flowers seem to breathe, their colors shifting between memory and imagination. A quiet tension lingers—are they blooming or fading? The vase anchors them, yet they strain toward something unseen.
Woman And Roses (1879)

Auguste Toulmouche (French, 1829–1890)

Flower Beds, Central Park (circa 1890)

William Merritt Chase (American, 1849–1916)

Sunlight dapples through the trees, catching the bright clusters of blooms along the path. The flower beds burst with color against the park’s green expanse, a quiet riot of petals where city meets nature. Strollers pause, drawn by the vivid contrast between cultivated beauty and wild growth.
Fleurs dans un pot (Roses et brouillard) (1878)

Claude Monet (French, 1840–1926)

Soft petals blur into mist, their edges dissolving like morning fog. The vase anchors them—just barely—amid swirls of color that pulse with life. These roses aren’t still; they breathe.
Go Lovely Rose! Tell her that Wastes her Time and Mine

Herbert James Draper (English, 1863–1920)

A woman cradles a rose, her gaze distant. The petals mirror her delicate features, both poised between bloom and decay. Time slips like water through her fingers—the flower’s message urgent, unheeded.
Girl in Blue Arranging Flowers (1915)

Frederick Carl Frieseke (American, 1874–1939)

A woman in a blue dress leans over a table, her hands gently arranging a burst of blossoms. Sunlight spills across the scene, softening the colors—her dress, the petals, the quiet corner of the room. It’s an ordinary moment, yet alive with quiet attention.
