More about this artwork
Artist: Eugène Henri Cauchois (1850-1911)The stunning painting "Bouquet with Daisies and Gold Lacquer" by renowned French artist Eugène Henri Cauchois, dating around 1900, depicts a lush and vivid arrangement of flowers that effortlessly captivates the viewer. Henri Cauchois, celebrated for his masterful floral compositions, presents a delightful mix of daisies and other blossoms rich in intense hues.At the heart of the work are the radiant white daisies, their pristine petals vivid against a backdrop of darker, rich maroon and fiery orange flowers—possibly chrysanthemums. This contrast not only highlights the daisies’ purity but also accentuates the depth and drama of the darker blooms. The leaves, deep green and occasionally tinged with yellow, bend and weave through the composition, adding a sense of natural movement.The background and base of the painting are executed in subdued earthy tones that ensure the floral arrangement commands attention. Cauchois’ skill with texture is evident in the visible brush strokes, which give a lively, almost tactile quality to the petals and leaves."Bouquet with Daisies and Gold Lacquer" exemplifies Cauchois' ability to convey the delicate interplay of light and texture, making an everyday bouquet a subject of profound beauty and artistic expression.

Eugène Henri Cauchois (1850-1911) was born in the city of Rouen on February 14, 1850. He received his artistic training under the master painters Ferdinand Duboc and Alexandre Cabanel. His soft, colorful and lustrous still‑lives reflect a strong influence from the renowned Impressionist artists of his time. Similar to the techniques of the Impressionists, Cauchois' canvases are created with layer upon layer of loose and fluid brush strokes.
