Descriptif du lot

In late 1946, after a break from painting, Bomberg took up his brushes again and produced a series of flower paintings 'like the earlier ones of the forties, [they] took the place of painting expeditions, for the artist could re-create those aspects of nature which, on a small scale, satisfied his need for confronting a landscape or seascape' (see W. Lipke, David Bomberg, London, 1967, p. 90).
