Lê Phổ (1907-2001) Bouquet of flowers with daisies and poppies in a glass vase, c. 1950-1970 Oil on silk mounted on isorel. Signed lower right in Chinese and Roman letters. 22 x 14.5 cm Wooden frame covered with canvas. The choice of silk as a support adds a delicate texture and a particular luminosity to the work. Vibrant colors, including yellows, blues, reds and greens, create a lively, dynamic composition. The flowers, painted in an impressionistic manner, almost seem to dance across the canvas, capturing the ephemeral essence of nature. The use of visible brushstrokes and the texture added by the oil lend depth and richness to the painting. The signature in the lower right-hand corner in Chinese characters and Roman letters is characteristic of the artist. Lê Pho, born August 2, 1907 in Ha-dong near Hanoi, is one of the most influential Vietnamese painters of the 20th century. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts d'Indochine, he combined traditional Asian techniques with Western modern influences. His works are particularly renowned for their delicate, poetic depictions of flower bouquets. Lê Pho's floral compositions are imbued with gentleness and serenity, reflecting both his cultural heritage and his unique talent.
