Oil on Canvas Still Life of Flower

1900 - 1920

Sold by Shackladys Antiques

Description

This vibrant still life by Frank Beresford features a lush bouquet of flowers arranged in a rounded blue vessel, set against a softly modulated green and ochre background. Warm red and coral blossoms dominate the composition, complemented by accents of white and deep blue, creating a rich and harmonious palette.

Beresford’s confident, painterly brushwork is evident throughout, with areas of visible impasto lending texture and vitality to the petals and foliage. The background is treated with broad, vertical strokes that provide depth while allowing the floral arrangement to remain the clear focal point. The balanced composition and expressive handling of paint reflect a traditional still-life sensibility infused with an impressionistic touch.

The painting is housed in an elaborately moulded gilt frame that enhances its decorative presence and underscores its classic appeal. A well-executed example of Beresford’s still-life work.
