ABOUT THE WORK

Vase of Flowers by John la Farge was created in 1864 and is in Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The size of the work is 46,4 x 35,6 cm and is made of oil on canvas. Vase of Flowers is one of the most ambiguous and mysterious of La Farge’s floral paintings. A vase of roses, geraniums, and other pink and red flowers is set off-center on a tabletop in a shallow space. The background may be a Japanese screen or an open window, as in many of the artist’s early still lifes. It has been suggested that the vase may be a pi t’ung, a Chinese porcelain vessel for holding the brushes of artists and calligraphers, thus accounting for its distinctive shape. Fascinated by Asian art and an early collector of Japanese prints, La Farge also had a large collection of Chinese and Japanese ceramics. In addition, his wife was the great niece of Matthew Perry, who had opened Japan to Western trade in 1854. The Artist: John La Farge (1835 – 1910) was an American painter, muralist, stained glass window maker, decorator, and writer. He initially intended to study law, but this changed after his first visit to Paris, France in 1856. La Farge also studied with the painter William Morris Hunt in Newport, Rhode Island.
