YELLOW ROSES IN A VASE A bouquet of yellow roses rests on a marble table set against a dark background. The fully bloomed flowers are captured at the fleeting moment when their lush, open petals begin to fall. The painting's dramatic impact lies in the striking contrast between the minimalist elegance of its composition and the richly textured, thickly painted roses at its center.Yellow Roses in a Vase is Gustave Caillebotte's first significant exploration of the still-life genre. Between 1881 and 1883, he created over 30 still lifes, reflecting a growing fascination with the genre among Impressionist artists, including Claude Monet, who shared Caillebotte's Paris studio in 1882.This particular painting remained in Caillebotte's possession throughout his life. After he died in 1894, it was acquired by Edgar Degas, a discerning collector of his contemporaries’ works, much like Caillebotte himself had been.
