Fleurs 

"Fleurs" is a captivating still life painting by French artist Félix Ziem, renowned for his landscapes and Orientalist subjects. This painting showcases Ziem's mastery of brushstrokes, capturing the delicate beauty of pink peonies with an almost impressionistic approach. The flowers are rendered with a sense of spontaneity and vibrant color, creating a tangible feeling of their soft texture. The background, painted with loose, swirling strokes, adds depth and a sense of the natural world, making this a quintessential example of Ziem's skill and appreciation for floral subjects.
