Description
This tall, narrow canvas is filled almost entirely by a single large flower rendered in thick, loaded strokes of red and orange, its petals streaked with white and touches of pink toward the base. Renoir builds the bloom from broad, confident brushmarks rather than fine detail, with a dark, shadowed center and a few strokes of green suggesting a leaf or stem beneath the petals.
The cream-colored ground is left visible around the edges, framing the flower like a close-up study rather than a full bouquet, in keeping with the piece’s title. Painted in 1919, one of Renoir’s final years, and now held at the Fitzwilliam Museum, this small study shows the artist working with a loose, almost sculptural handling of paint even late in life.
Our reproduction of Study of Flowers is available as a hand-painted oil copy on canvas or as an archival giclee print, made to order in a range of sizes and delivered ready to hang.
