This illustrative early 21st-century oil painting by French artist Bernard Dufour (1922-2016) depicts two women picking flowers from a garden. Dufour has left the figures predominantly uncoloured giving the piece an interesting stylised look. A simple palette is enlivened with dark green leaves and pops of orange plants.
Bernard Dufour was a fascinating artist, particularly noted for his abstracts following the Second World War.
