1924 Paris School Floral Still Life by Wilhelmine Zéguers (1893–1999). Belgian Artist in Paris

A vibrant 1924 Paris School floral still life by the Belgian artist Wilhelmine Zéguers (1893–1999), painted during her early career in Paris. Signed and dated, this expressive work captures the energy, colour and modern sensibility of the interwar art scene.

This striking 1924 floral arrangement is painted with bold, confident brushwork characteristic of the Paris School between the wars. Wilhelmine Zéguers places a rich bouquet of blue, red, and cream flowers inside a rounded glass vase, set against draped fabrics and a patterned table covering. The palette is lush yet sophisticated, with deep blues and warm rose tones balancing the lighter highlights of the bouquet. The work reflects the stylistic freedom that permeated Paris in the 1920s: looser composition, expressive handling of paint, and a vibrant colour structure influenced by Post-Impressionism and early modernism. The canvas shows Zéguers’ mastery of texture, the glossy glass vase contrasts beautifully with the dry, dynamic strokes of the flowers and fabric.

Wilhelmine Zéguers (1893–1999) was a Belgian painter who worked extensively in Paris, absorbing the artistic innovations of the École de Paris. Her early works, such as this 1924 still life, show a confident painter integrating modern colour theory with traditional genre subjects. She lived a long artistic life spanning nearly the entire 20th century, with a body of work marked by strong colour, expressive surfaces, and floral themes.

The painting is presented in a period carved frame that enhances its decorative strength while keeping its Parisian character. Good vintage condition with age-appropriate craquelure and surface texture. Frame shows minor wear and warm patina consistent with its age.
