A richly detailed and vibrant composition, “Still Life with Flowers'” by Jaggu Prasad (B. 1963) captures the timeless elegance of classical floral still life painting. Executed in oil on board and measuring 9″ x 7″ framed (5′ x 7″ artwork) , this intimate work offers an exquisite bouquet of blooms rendered with stunning realism and finesse. Prasad’s brushwork displays an extraordinary sensitivity to texture, light, and depth — from the velvety petals of crimson poppies to the luminous whites and pinks of blooming roses.
Set against a dark background with a strong chiaroscuro effect, the flowers appear almost sculptural in their vivid presence, echoing the Dutch Old Master tradition with a contemporary touch. Housed in a beautifully contrasting black-and-gilt frame, this piece is ready to elevate any wall with its quiet opulence. Brass easel stand also available for sale. See listing for companion painting.
