Vase of Flowers
Pictures by Odilon Redon
Odilon Redon's Vase of Flowers fills a white vase with red poppies, blue cornflowers and yellow wildflowers against a soft pink ground, half real and half dreamed. In his later years Redon turned from black charcoal to radiant color, and the young Fauves loved flower paintings like this one. For someone who loves flowers and fine art.
