Gentil

A dried rose rests gracefully on a Delft blue vase, its withered leaves and faded petals bearing witness to transience and time. The subtle lighting highlights the depth of its textures, while the surrounding darkness draws attention to its fragile beauty. Though its bloom has passed, this rose still carries the essence of elegance and refinement. Its decay tells a story of memories and letting go — a moment when beauty is no longer defined by perfection, but by authenticity and depth. This work is an invitation to view decay differently — not as an end, but as a new beginning. The combination of the classical vase and the weathered rose connects tradition with impermanence and evokes questions about the fleeting nature of our existence.
