꽃다발 by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1910

Even as severe rheumatoid arthritis crippled his hands in his later years, Renoir refused to stop painting, eventually having brushes strapped to his fingers to capture blooms like these. This vibrant 1910 bouquet bursts with lush pink, red, and white roses, their loose, expressive brushstrokes making them look like they're practically vibrating with life against a warm, earthy background. The dark blue-green vase grounds the composition, while fallen petals on the table hint at the fleeting nature of beauty—a classic Impressionist theme.
