Zinnias and Asters | Tadeusz Makowski Notebook

Zinnias and Asters in a Glass Jar (1920) by Tadeusz Makowski (Polish, 1882–1932) is a charming and modern still life that blends simplicity with vivid colour. Known for his poetic and stylised approach, Makowski presents a modest arrangement of bright zinnias and asters in a transparent jar, using clear lines and a muted background to let the blooms shine. The composition reflects elements of Cubism and folk art, hallmarks of the artist’s unique style. This piece radiates quiet beauty and balance, embodying Makowski’s ability to find depth in everyday subjects. Use the design tools to add custom text or personalise the image.
