Floral Still Life, Signed Mary Berryman, Framed on Canvas Board

Soft pink blooms spill from a glowing copper vase against a powder-blue ground—an intimate floral still life with beautiful, time-earned craquelure. The petals are painted with textured strokes that catch the light; a dusting of fallen petals gathers along the table’s edge. Signed at lower left “Mary Berryman”, the work is executed on a Fredrix 5" × 7" canvas panel (a beloved U.S. maker of artist panels) and presented in a vintage gilt frame.

Pieces like this came out of the late-20th-century studio and workshop movement—small paintings meant for home interiors, rich with surface and charm. The natural crazing in the varnish/paint adds depth and authenticity, giving the scene a gently antique glow. Ready to hang and easy to place, it’s lovely on a gallery wall, bedside, or kitchen shelf. (Easel not included.)
