Herbert Davis Richter RBA ROI RI RSW PS (1874-1955) painted 'Summer Flowers in a Vase' in 1920 in the British Impressionism style. This oil on canvas painting portrays a still life composition featuring a vibrant multicolour floral arrangement with impasto brushwork, a dark glass vase, a porcelain figurine of a figure riding an animal, and a wooden table. The piece measures 91 cm high, 78 cm wide, and 6.5 cm deep, housed in an original frame bearing the remnant of an exhibition label for the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts verso. Suitable for an English Country House design vibe, this fine art painting is designed for placement above a sideboard in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The canvas displays the artist's signature and forms part of his extensive body of exhibited floral works, reflecting his background as a flower painter and decorative artist.

Emerging in the early 20th century, British Impressionist floral still life paintings focus on vibrant colour harmony, expressive brushwork, and natural light to capture freshly cut garden blooms in domestic settings.

Artists typically used oil pigments mixed with drying oils, applied with bristle brushes or palette knives onto stretched linen or cotton canvas primed with gesso.

Authentication relies on examining signature characteristics, canvas age and stretcher construction, brushwork techniques, provenance documentation, and visible impasto layers.

Position the artwork as a focal point above a mantelpiece or sideboard, surrounding it with understated modern decor to allow the vibrant palette to stand out.

Dust the surface gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, keep the painting away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, and consult a professional conservator for deep cleaning.
