About the piece

This 1866 oil painting by Henri Fantin-Latour showcases the artist's renowned ability to capture botanical precision alongside a sense of quiet elegance. The composition balances the vibrant pink of primroses with the rich, earthy tones of pears and pomegranates, all anchored by the crisp luminosity of a white tablecloth.
