C.S. Henry – “Still Life with Vase of Flowers” & Mythological Tableau

Oil on Canvas | 20th Century | Stretched & Ready to Frame

This captivating oil on canvas by European artist C.S. Henry is a dynamic blend of still life and classical inspiration. Titled Still Life with Vase of Flowers, the composition features a richly rendered bouquet of roses, lavender, and wildflowers arranged in a dark vase atop a red damask tablecloth. A cluster of deep purple grapes rests below, adding a lush and textural anchor.

What sets this piece apart is the mythological scene painted in the background—two nude female figures reclining beside a stream, reminiscent of Renaissance or Rococo pastoral fantasies. The dual subject matter evokes both sensuality and serenity, creating a layered visual experience that rewards repeated viewing.

Freshly stretched and in very good vintage condition, this piece measures 20 x 25 inches and is signed in the lower right. A striking addition to any gallery wall, salon-style vignette, or classically inspired interior.
