White Lilies

20th-century large-scale oil painting on canvas signed Eugène Guyard (1901–1970) in the lower left corner.

This richly toned still life is a stunner, a large-scale mid-century oil painting that can easily serve as the hero of any room. Anchored in deep greens and golden hues, the composition centers around a porcelain vase and abstract white lilies that fan outward in a graceful rhythm.

Guyard captures an array of textures, the reflective glass, mineral-toned walls, a handkerchief, a yellow stoneware plate, porcelain, and botanical forms, while maintaining visual harmony throughout. Each element is rendered with attention to movement and surface, and the light, falling directly on the lilies and porcelain, creates a gentle chiaroscuro effect.

The painting is in excellent condition and comes in a mid-century light wood frame, also in good condition. Ready to hang.
