About the Item
Large still life oil painting by French artist, Constantin Font signed in the lower left. This very attractive oil on canvas hails from the 1930's. A composition that is perfection, flowers crammed and arranged not too neatly in an attractive vase, probably freshly picked from the garden. An aqua green throw sits on the right hand side, balanced by a porcelain bird of the same colour on the left. The flowers come in all sorts of pink, reds, whites and purple hues animated by the artist with raised petals on a slightly textured canvas.

It represents the symbol of strength, because this fish was the only one able to go up the steam of the Yellow River. Owning a koi will long remain the prerogative of the Japanese nobility.
