John Knight: Identity Value
This rather typical mass arrangement of radiating movement, are groupings of the rounded forms of pink carnations, yellow daffodils, and variegated red-and-white tulips in contrast to the pink curved spikes of maroon snapdragons, pink stock, and rose and purple hyacinths, with a few green daffodil leaves for quiet color and additional line. This triangular design achieves depth through contrasting light and dark materials. The open outline delineates the spaces that balance the solid profusion of flowers, and it is the more open silhouette that makes this a contemporary compensation rather than a strictly period piece. The stately bronze vase lifts the mass to an appropriate height allowing air to flow under and around the composition.
