Pots and Boquets 1886

Paul Gauguin's "Pots and Boquets" (1886) is a still life painting that showcases the artist's unique style. Vibrant hues of red, yellow, and orange dominate the composition, emphasizing the beauty of the flower arrangements. The flowers are depicted with a distinct level of detail, highlighting Gauguin's keen observation of nature. The artist's use of thick brushstrokes and bold color contrasts further contribute to the painting's expressive nature, highlighting the artist's transition from Impressionism to his own style of Symbolism. The use of light and shadow adds depth to the work, while the inclusion of everyday objects like pots and a blanket suggests an intimate domestic setting.
