Maurice Ehlinger, Still Life With Yellow Chrysanthemums & Vase

Maurice Ehlinger, Still Life With Yellow Chrysanthemums & VaseA gorgeous early 20th century still life depicting a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums with a vase by French painter, Maurice Ehlinger (1896 1981). Ehlinger has selected a composition that brings these beautiful flowers firmly in view with the longest stems extending off three sides of the canvas. By doing so, hes immersed us into a light filled riot of yellow and green with the open petals bringing a sense of life and vitality. Maurice Ambroise
