This colourful floral still life by Ernst Fuchs, created around 1984, shows the Viennese artist's expressive world of colour. Painted in bold shades of blue, bright yellow and accents of red and orange, the flowers and leaves appear lively and almost surreal. The vase at the bottom of the picture, in bright yellow and orange, forms the colourful centre and supports the interplay of light and shadow that is typical of Fuchs' style.
