Oil on canvasboard still life painting by Joan Howe depicting a green demijohn. This demijohn takes up a significant portion of the canvas, its dark, moody tone starkly contrasting against a darker, texturized background. In the foreground, slightly off to the right and in front of the bottle, stands a small, delicate white vase. This vase holds a few sprigs of white flowers and green leaves, introducing a gentle touch of life and color to the composition.Type of Painting
