Description
Groups of like flowers, often in threes, are gathered into a roughly symmetrical bouquet along its vertical axis. The planter has no visible pattern; the wallpaper behind is defined via colors instead of pattern. Judging from highlights upon the planter and a shadow at right, sunshine filtering in from the left is quite strong.
