Straw Flowers by William Shulgold

A slanted table has a vase filled with dried flowers ranging from colors of orange, yellow, purple and one single white flower. Behind the vase is a heavier fabric draping around all the objects on the table. The objects include a goblet swaddled in the fabric to the left of the vase, a book in front of the vase and a bowl of pears and grapes to the left of the vase. The warm colors and the focus of the flowers in the middle of the painting make the painting feel autumnal. Which leads to the feeling that the flowers symbolize the end of autumn and the beginning of winter as the flowers seem to have been collected and dried and therefore been in the vase for a while.
