Vase with Lilacs, Daisies and Anemones Vincent van Gogh Date: 1887; Paris, France * Style: Post-Impressionism Genre: flower painting Media: oil, canvas Location: Musée d'Art et d'Histoire, Geneva, Switzerland
Vase with Daisies and Anemones (F323), also known as Flowers in a Blue Vase, was painted late in Van Gogh's stay in Paris. The vase holds a lively selection of daisies and anemones made with a range of colors. Dark red-brown is enlivened by shades of yellow, pink and white. He particularly works with the various shades of yellow, likely having selected colors for the combinations of color and shades that he wanted to portray. The vase is painted in a contrasting shade of blue. Techniques of Impressionism and Divisionism are reflected in his brushstrokes of the background, having used broken strokes and dots of color.
