About the Item

Title: Still Life with Chrysanthemums in Glass Vase French Modern Floral Oil Painting Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021) Oil on artist paper, unframed Size: 25.5 x 19.75 inches (height x width) Provenance: Artists estate, France Condition: good overall; minor edge wear and slight creasing to paper consistent with age; paint layer stable with strong colour retention and attractive surface texture Description: A striking mid-century still life by French modernist artist Guy Nicod, depicting a vibrant arrangement of chrysanthemums in a clear glass vase. Painted in rich, textured oil on paper, the composition exudes warmth and vitality, combining expressive brushwork with a refined sense of balance. The bouquet bursts with autumnal hues of yellow, orange, and red, set against the cool blue-grey tones of a softly lit background. Nicod’s confident use of oil paint brings a tactile depth to the work—the dense, layered petals contrast beautifully with the reflective surface of the vase and the deep crimson tabletop below. Subtle variations in light and shadow reveal his strong understanding of colour harmony and composition, while his modernist sensibility transforms this traditional subject into a powerful study of movement and luminosity. Reflecting the influence of French post-war modernism and artists such as Braque and Bonnard, Nicod’s still life paintings are celebrated for their structural simplicity and painterly sophistication. This piece captures the delicate balance between realism and abstraction that defines his practice, inviting viewers to linger on both form and feeling. From the artist’s estate in France, this unframed oil on paper represents an excellent example of Nicod’s mature still life work. Perfect for collectors of 20th-century French art, it brings both warmth and elegance to any interior—its glowing palette and expressive texture making it a timeless statement of colour and craft.
