Vase of Flowers I 1946

Prudence Heward's "Vase of Flowers I," painted in 1946, is a vibrant still life showcasing a vase of flowers set against a blurred, outdoor landscape. The colorful blooms, rendered in bold brushstrokes, are the focal point, while the background suggests a garden scene with trees and foliage. Heward's work, known for its expressive use of color and texture, captures the beauty and fragility of nature in this piece, showcasing her skill in capturing both the stillness of the vase and the movement of the outdoor world.
