A still life by Belgian Fauvist painter Gustave de Smet, depicting a vase of flowers on a windowsill overlooking a garden. The painting features bold colours and simplified forms, characteristic of de Smet's expressive style.
Gustave de Smet (1877-1943) was a Belgian painter associated with the Fauvist movement. He is known for his expressive use of colour and simplified forms. His work often depicts domestic scenes, figures, and still lifes. De Smet's style evolved over his career, reflecting influences from Expressionism and Cubism. He was a member of the second Latem School of painting, a group of artists working near Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium. His paintings are characterised by their emotional intensity and subjective interpretation of reality. In this still life, a vase of red and pink flowers sits on a windowsill, framed by a view of a garden. The flowers are rendered with thick, impasto brushstrokes, giving them a tactile quality. The garden outside is depicted with simplified shapes and bold colours, creating a sense of depth and perspective. The composition is balanced, with the flowers in the foreground contrasting with the garden in the background. The painting's palette is dominated by reds, greens, and blues, creating a harmonious and visually engaging image. The scene is viewed from inside, looking out, creating a sense of intimacy.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
