A salmon-coloured tulip stands stately in a dark vase, simple and elegant. The petal is soft in colour and exudes understated warmth. Below, on the wooden table, a small snail slowly crawls by. This detail gives the work a surprising twist: the snail's slow movement contrasts with the sophistication of the flower and brings a sense of patience and stillness.
The inspiration for this painting lies in the tradition of classical still lifes, which often incorporate small symbolic details. The snail symbolises tranquillity, perseverance and the slow flow of time. Combined with the flower, it creates a story that invites the viewer to look longer and discover more and more.
With its dark background and sober colour composition, this work has an old-fashioned, almost painterly feel. It is a work that brings calm to any interior while adding a subtle depth. This still life is not only an ode to nature, but also a reminder of the importance of slowing down in our busy lives.
The painting is available separately, but is also part of a complete set of three works.
