This original still life painting depicts a full bouquet of lilac blossoms arranged in a green vase set upon a wooden surface. The composition is rendered with soft, expressive brushwork that emphasizes texture and color harmony, combining delicate purples, whites, and greens against a warm, muted background. Layered paint application and subtle highlights create depth and a calm, traditional atmosphere typical of early 20th-century floral still lifes. The painting is signed and dated Helen Garraux 1937 at the lower right and is presented in a gilt frame that complements the warm tonal palette.
