French 19th Century Paste Painting with Bouquet of Flowers in Giltwood Frame

A French pastel floral painting from the 19th century depicting a bouquet of flowers in a vase, set in giltwood frame. This painting demonstrates the mastery pastelists achieved over time, the most famous of whom was Maurice Quentin de La Tour. The painting depicts a luscious bouquet of flowers joyously arranged in a copper vase and on which a couple of butterflies are landing. Displayed on a table top, the bouquet stands out beautifully on a neutral toned background. Showcasing blue, white, red, green and soft pink tones, the painting is signed lower right. Set inside a giltwood frame with petite beads, this 19th century French pastel painting will enliven any wall, perhaps hung above a commode, side table or buffet.
