LÊ PHỔ (1907-2001)
Les roses
Oil on silk, signed lower right, titled and numbered on back
61 x 37,5 cm - 24 x 14 3/4 in.
Lê Phổ breathes life into his classical floral compositions. A master of his subject, Lê Phổ uses the same thread for each of his works: although the variety of flowers varies, a dominant chromatic range, around which other hues harmonize, always halo his creations. In this painting, entitled Les roses, the dominant hues, pinks and greens, are enhanced by touches of yellow. Pink, green and blue combine to form a composition imbued with softness. Petals scattered across the table accentuate this delicacy. They also add a poetic, almost melancholy note, illustrating the passing of time. Combining grace and vitality, Lê Phổ succeeds here in capturing the gentle yet indomitable character of roses.
