I find it fascinating that Fantin-Latour has de-emphasized the glass vase — likely a star part of the composition in the hands of many other artists — and emphasized instead the textural surface of both the flowers and the fruit.

About to buy a new monitor, the former 28″ HannsG let me down.
Thanks for making my day with Henry F.
Absolutely beautiful painting, the colors are wonderful!
