A cluster of yellow and purple pansies with green leaves in a brown pot
This still life painting features a dense arrangement of pansies in a pot, set against a dark, muted background. The flowers dominate the central and lower portions of the canvas. Most pansies display vibrant yellow petals with distinct dark purple or reddish-brown centers, creating a striking contrast. Some flowers appear to be entirely dark purple or deep reddish-brown. Green leaves are interspersed among the blossoms, providing a lush backdrop. A textured, brown pot or container is visible along the bottom edge of the composition, partially obscured by the foliage. The background is a dark, indistinct blend of browns and greens, allowing the flowers to stand out. In the bottom right corner, a signature reads "Fantin" in a cursive script.
