In the present still life of flowers, Carl Krenek shows his painterly qualities and is more oriented towards Paris than Vienna. The haunting still life against a dark background with a chimney-red vase, can also be interpreted as a suggestion of vanitas through the first falling petals, but at the same time symbolises blossoming life through refined and airily depicted flowers. Instead of an ornamental solution, Krenek shows a painterly generosity with a high symbolic content that is rare in his work. Translate View on...
