Renoir's vase of cup-shaped anemones in pink, white, and red stands out against the neutral background. Visible swirls of paint define the silken petals, imparting a vitality to the cut blooms. From the 1860s to the 1880s, the artist relished in painting mainly bouquets of flowers but also occasional groupings of fruit and vegetables. Many of these were evidently made for sale on the commercial art market, but the informal quality and size of some examples indicate that they were painted for pleasure or technical practice.
