"Dark, calm and simplicity: Still life with flowers: the Helleborus" is a macro photo of a flower of the Helleborus (also called Christmas rose). Only the plant's flower is photographed here, lying on a mirrored surface. This reflection gives the image something exciting and distinctive. The background and ground merge into one another, creating a plane without a horizon line. This makes the image very calm and minimalistic. If you zoom in on the flower, you can nicely see the details of this work.
I would describe the colour as dark purple, towards burgundy. This colour creates a quiet dreamy atmosphere. A tranquillity is created because the colour of the flower nicely matches the colour of the background/substrate.
This work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in, for example, the waiting room, bedroom, hallway or of course just above the sofa!
