A 19th-century framed oil on canvas floral painting signed by French artist Philippe Rousseau (1816-1887). This exquisite still-life work showcases a lush bouquet of flowers against a neutral background, reminiscent of the style of Jean-Siméon Chardin. The gentle light, cast from the left, beautifully highlights the vibrant colors of red poppies, delicate pink roses, white chrysanthemums, and lush green leaves. Rousseau, who is believed to have studied under Antoine-Jean Gros, skillfully creates a charming composition that adds an elegant touch to any wall. Set within a beautifully carved giltwood frame, this painting is signed "Rousseau" in the lower right corner, further enhancing its artistic authenticity. This piece not only captures the essence of 19th-century floral art but also serves as a stunning focal point for any space.
