"Blomsterbukett" 1930 - 1947

"Blomsterbukett", created between 1930 and 1947 by Swedish artist Siri Magnus-Lagercrantz (1875-1944), is a black and white woodcut depicting a vase of spring flowers. The artwork is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the delicate beauty of nature with bold lines and stark contrasts. The composition is simple yet elegant, featuring a single, centrally positioned bouquet arranged in a vase with a distinct silhouette. The use of black and white emphasizes the texture of the flowers and leaves, creating a sense of realism and depth. The artwork, currently held at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Magnus-Lagercrantz's mastery of the woodcut technique, which she utilized throughout her career.
