More about this artwork

Gerda Wegener's captivating painting titled "Still Life with Blue Flowers and Two Bottles on a Table" painted in 1907, showcases her exceptional skill in the art of still life. This exquisite work features a lush bouquet of vibrant blue flowers that dominate the composition, breathingly arranged on a seemingly simple table. The blossoms, with their rich shades of blue and purple, convey a feeling of freshness and natural beauty, contrasting beautifully against the subtle, muted background.To the right of the flowers, two bottles add an intriguing element of daily life to the scene. One bottle, tall and green, stands stoically next to a smaller companion, a golden-yellow bottle that possibly contains essential oils or a fine liqueur. These bottles are not just functional objects; they introduce a play of colors and shapes that echo the organic forms of the floral arrangement.Wegener uses a textured, impasto technique to give depth and vibrancy to the painting, allowing the viewer to almost feel the brush strokes and the thickness of the paint. This technique adds a tactile dimension to the work, making the scene even more engaging and lively. The overall effect is one of serene beauty, a static moment captured on canvas where nature and human-made objects coexist in harmonious balance.Through "Still Life with Blue Flowers and Two Bottles on a Table," Gerda Wegener invites us to pause and appreciate the simple elegance of the natural world juxtaposed with hints of human presence, rendered in a style that is both bold and delicate.

Gerda Marie Fredrikke Wegener (15 March 1886 – 28 July 1940) was a Danish illustrator and painter. Wegener is known for her fashion illustrations and later her paintings that pushed the boundaries of her time concerning gender and love. These works were classified as lesbian erotica at times and many were inspired by her partner, the transgender woman Lili Elbe. Wegener employed these works in the styles of Art Nouveau and later Art Deco.
