Bouquet of Roses 1879

Henri Fantin-Latour’s 1879 black and white lithograph, “Bouquet of Roses”, is a still life showcasing a simple yet elegant arrangement of roses in a vase. The delicate lines of the print highlight the beauty of the roses' form and the meticulous detail of the artist’s technique, exemplifying his mastery of the medium. The composition is simple and direct, with the roses dominating the space and the vase serving as a subtle counterpoint. The print is a testament to Fantin-Latour's skill in capturing the essence of his subject matter, resulting in a work that is both visually appealing and intellectually stimulating.
