Flowers in a Crystal Vase

Flowers in a Crystal Vase (French - Œillets et clématites dans un vase de cristal) is an 1882 painting by Édouard Manet, in the Musée d'Orsay since 1986. It shows clematis and 'oeillets', a French word used for several kinds of cut flowers, many from the Dianthus genus. It was probably produced in July 1882 at Rueil and forms part of a set of still life paintings produced by Manet at the end of his life, mainly showing flowers.[1]
