Maurer defines the multifaceted volumes of his jardinière (decorative flowerpot) with teal, lavender, and blue lines, apparently to discover how they interact with the surrounding spaces and objects. These include two baked goods on a cream-colored napkin, an undulating blue cloth with dark dots, and spatially ambiguous red passages. Still Life with Jardinière could be a visual expression of the philosopher Henri Bergson's radical ideas about perception and memory, which had inspired the artist.
