About the piece
Created in 1887, this still life by Finnish artist Maria Wiik exemplifies the late 19th-century artistic interest in Japonisme. The composition pairs the natural beauty of velvet-petaled pansies with the geometric, decorative form of a large Japanese fan. Wiik’s painterly technique brings a sense of soft texture and luminous light to the scene, resulting in a piece that feels both classic and sophisticated.
