Original French oil on canvas by Maurice VERDIER (1919-2003). A well-known representative of neorealism in Europe after the World Wars, he strove to depict the everyday in an assured manner. According to critic Jacques Cabanon who commented on his works in 1956 at the Lorenceau gallery, Verdier “knows how to elate ‘from inside’ the beauty of the simplest things”.

This still life depicts zinnias in a vase, the warm colors of the flowers standing out against a background in colder hues of blue and green.

In a beautiful frame and in very good condition.
