Oval painting of a woven brown basket holding pale bulbs with green shoots, on a pale yellow-green background with visible brushstrokes.

Basket of Hyacinth Bulbs

An oval canvas shows a woven brown basket holding several pale bulbs with green shoots sprouting upward, set against a pale yellow-green ground with loose, visible brushstrokes. Earthy browns and ochres dominate, and the thick, directional brushwork across basket and background gives the surface a textured, energetic feel.
