This oil painting from 1938 is part of Evard’s still life works and depicts flowers in a purple vase. The vase rests on a table, which the painter merely suggests with a diagonal line and abstractly renders in yellow. Against a simple, white background, the flowers, in pink and pastel shades, with their lush blooms, truly stand out. Evard also depicts two closed blossoms, thereby alluding to the cycle of growth and decay. The warm, pastel colors make the painting appear friendly and gentle; the summery atmosphere with its airiness is further emphasized by the extremely sparing use of dark contrasts.
