The Édeline Still Life

An antique still life of chrysanthemums in soft white, pale blush, and warm yellow tones, with touches of deep red anchoring the composition. The darker background gives it a subtle moody contrast, while the lighter blooms bring an easy brightness to the piece.

Signed at the base and set in a period frame with natural age patina. The scale makes it especially versatile — pieces like this are surprisingly hard to find, and they add a quiet, thoughtful presence to a space without overwhelming it. The scale is ideal for those subtle placements — slightly off-center above a bed, or near the bedside — where small art feels the most personal.

This is the sister to The Mariette, painted by the same artist and originally kept together as a pair. They sit beautifully side by side, though each also stands entirely on its own.
