DescriptionA still life painting of a bunch of dying sunflowers, sagging in a grey square vase sitting on the corner of a table. Behind the flowers is a wall, presumably papered. The paper's pattern is made up of pink horizontal dashes on a dark pink background. The execution of the painting is reminiscent of Van Gogh's work.
