Vase of Flowers 1963

"Vase of Flowers" is a 1963 etching by American artist Stuart Egnal. The piece features a simple composition of a vase of flowers, likely daisies, rendered with stark black lines against a white background. The flowers are shown in a stylized manner, with their petals and leaves rendered with simple, bold lines. The vase is also depicted with a similar, abstract style. This artwork is a prime example of Egnal's talent for reducing complex forms to their essence. He was known for his graphic style and the focus on the beauty of everyday subjects. Egnal’s career was cut short by his tragic death in 1966 at the age of 26.
