This striking large-scale work by contemporary Iranian-American artist Roshan Houshmand features a bold, gestural rendering of a day lily. The flower is executed in deep magenta and crimson tones, outlined with a sharp white contour that allows the petals to pop against a textured, luminous gold leaf background. Houshmand’s work often explores the intersection of Western expressionism and Eastern spiritualism, and this piece exemplifies that fusion through its vibrant energy and use of metallic gilding. The composition is dynamic, with the lily's petals extending toward the edges of the frame, creating an immersive floral experience. Signed, titled, and inscribed on the reverse.
