Still Life: Roses
Autochrome on glass, 13 x 18 cm, by Clément Maurice (1853–1933)
Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris
 

The delicate beauty of roses in vibrant hues fills the frame, their soft petals creating a sense of tranquillity. Arranged in a traditional still-life manner, the soft, diffused lighting evokes a timeless elegance and a sense of nostalgia. Maurice's technique gives a rich, almost ethereal quality to the colour, creating a distinctive clarity while maintaining a subtle, natural flow.
