LÊ PHỔ (1907-2001), “A MOTHER AND HER CHILD”

In this painting, a mother and her son stand out beautifully against a background of vibrant flowers. Lê Phổ combined two of his favorite subjects, flowers and woman portraits. The freshness of the petals and the richness of the colors highlight the warmth and intimacy of the moment between mother and son.
