Pink Flowers in Three Vases — Pierre Bonnard Postcard

This untitled still life gathers pink into three separate vessels at once: primroses in a green two-handled vase, asters crowded into a blue-and-white striped ginger jar, dahlias rising from a white footed bowl. Between them, a scatter of lemons and a small red book sit on a dark tabletop, with a blue wall and a deep red drape closing in behind. Bonnard often left work like this untitled, more interested in the arrangement of colour than in naming the scene, and this canvas reads that way — a private study rather than a finished statement. The pink repeats and shifts across each vase, never quite the same shade twice. A soft, colour-led card from the Pierre Bonnard collection, well suited to a flower lover or anyone collecting his quieter still lifes.
