Description
Like a painting in the Impressionism style, a vase of blue and white and pink Hydrangea flowers sits on a wall sconce. A light blue texture has been added.
NOTE: The "Fine Art America" watermark logo in the lower right corner will not appear on purchased products.
Just as the remnant green in tinted pot
So are these leaves, now rough and wrecked
Behind the flower umbels, that reflect
Only a hue of blue, more do they not.
Reflected are they, tear-stained, imperfect,
As if this they were prone to cease,
And as in blue and aged paper leaves
There�s yellow within, grey and violet.
Faded like a washed-out pinafore
No longer worn and of so little use:
How do we our too-short life endure.
But suddenly a blue renewed is seen
Among one of the umbels, and I sense
A blue delighted, smiling at the green.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke

So feminine - this would suit an old fashioned decor but would be equally at home in a contemporary home. Beautiful. Congratulations on having this image selected as a Pillow of the Day in the Floral Throw Pillows group.
