EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white still life painting, dated circa 1917, showcases a charming contrast between the vertical stripes of a tea set and the delicate pink blooms of a flowered plant. The tea set, with its elegant and timeless design, features black and white stripes that run vertically, adding a sense of height and symmetry to the composition. The set is placed beside a beautiful pink flowered plant in a block vase, the vibrant hues of the flowers adding a pop of colour against the monochromatic backdrop. The painting, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of the early 20th century with its intricate details and attention to form. The tea set, with its classic design, is reminiscent of the era's appreciation for fine china and tea culture. The pink flowered plant adds a touch of natural beauty and softness to the scene, creating a harmonious balance between the starkness of the black and white and the playful, feminine quality of the flowers. The painting is believed to have been published in a magazine, possibly in October of a volume not yet identified. The use of the block vase further adds to the vintage feel of the image, evoking memories of the time when such still life paintings were popular in home decor and interior design. This painting is a beautiful representation of the aesthetic sensibilities of the early 1900s and is sure to add a touch of timeless elegance to any decor.
