Flower Pot c. 1939

"Flower Pot" is a watercolor painting by Alfred Parys, created around 1939. The painting depicts a simple terracotta flower pot, rendered in a realistic style with meticulous attention to detail. Parys's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and volume, highlighting the object's form and texture. The artist's interest in everyday objects is evident in this work, which captures the beauty of the ordinary. This still life is a testament to Parys's skill as a representational painter and his ability to find artistic merit in the most unassuming subjects.
