BowlerHarold - Lilies and Shell.jpg
It’s possible that the flowers depicted in this still life are wild mountain lilies (Lilium auratum), also called the golden-rayed lily of Japan. Whatever the case, flowers’ size and colorful radials draw our attention inward—which is similar in…

BurliukDavid - Easter Bouquet.JPG
In this still life we see upon a sideboard a pot planted with large lillies, as well as smaller flowers growing around them. There is a book open, which looks to be a highly stylised Bible, propped up in its own rectangular vessel. Given the…
