Mid-Century Folk Art Floral Painting on Silver Foil in Original Vintage Frame

This charming mid-century folk art painting features a lively floral arrangement rendered in a naïve, decorative style, framed by a laurel-like border and set against a rich green ground. The composition centers on a classical urn overflowing with stylized flowers, combining traditional European motifs with an expressive, hand-painted sensibility.

The painting is presented in what appears to be its original dark gold vintage frame, appropriate to the era and beautifully complementing the warm tones and graphic outlines of the artwork. A small maker’s mark or monogram appears in the lower corner, though the artist remains unidentified.
