The painting depicts a delicate, poetic still life composition: In a spherical vase stand several blue-tinted carnations, their slender stems and slightly opened blossoms exuding a delicate, almost floating lightness. The leaves and flower heads are loosely arranged and display various shades of blue, appearing sometimes more vibrant, sometimes pastel-like.
The vase rests on a small, flat plate, which in turn stands on a suggested pedestal. Its round form is emphasized by a soft light reflection, lending the object volume and material presence. The background is vibrant and painterly: warm yellow and ochre tones dominate, interspersed with shimmering rosé and orange stripes that resemble translucent color veils. This abstracted, color-intensive design creates an atmospheric contrast to the cool, blue carnations.
Overall, the painting appears harmonious, delicate, and at the same time modern in its color-focused, slightly abstract formal language, typical of Evard’s works from this period.
