Scent of a Rose

Leaf 178 – Art Inspired

 

Paul Cezanne - Roses in a Bottle (1904)


This is another #artinspired haiku. We often have a vase of cut flowers on our kitchen table, hence this watercolour by Paul Cezanne, ‘Roses in a Bottle’ (1904) prompted for me an early morning memory of home. A more abstract reading, however, could very simply inspire all sorts of speculation.
