About the piece
In this 1909 work by Henri Rachou, the artist juxtaposes the sacred and the domestic. A weathered Gothic-style statue of the Virgin Mary provides a quiet, textural backdrop to a brightly glazed ceramic pitcher filled with dried flowers. The piece is rendered with confident brushwork and a warm, sun-drenched palette that captures the play of light across various surfaces.
