About the piece

Painted around 1850, this oil study by Eugène Delacroix demonstrates the Romantic master's keen eye for color and natural form. The composition features a lush variety of garden flowers—stately hollyhocks in white and deep crimson, delicate lilacs, and a radiant sunflower—all rendered with confident, painterly brushwork against a soft, earthy ground.
