About the piece

Painted in 1889 by Polish artist Władysław Ślewiński, this still life showcases the simplified forms and bold outlines characteristic of the Pont-Aven school. The luminous white chrysanthemums contrast beautifully with the deep, earthy tones of the leather-bound books and green ceramic pitcher, creating a sophisticated and grounded composition perfect for a library or study.
