Signed: Yes
Medium: Pastel on unframed paper
Size: 17 inches (height) x 20.75 inches (width)
Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.
Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France.
Description: This elegant still life by French artist Anne Marie Migette Perard presents a classic arrangement of red, blush pink, and pale cream roses nestled within a delicate white porcelain vase. Executed in pastel, the artwork radiates softness and charm, with the velvety texture of each bloom beautifully rendered through Perard’s masterful hand.
Set against a warm ochre and soft blue gradient background, the composition balances light and depth, allowing the florals to take center stage. The roses are painted in full bloom, with lush green foliage providing contrast and structure to the overall bouquet. A pale cloth lies beneath the vase, subtly anchoring the piece and enhancing its sense of domestic stillness and refinement.
This piece evokes the timeless appeal of French floral still life painting...
