Paintings of roses by great masters of painting reveal to us the richness and tenderness of this symbol of love and elegance. Emotion and beauty sound in each color, which creates an impression of eternity and peace. One of the beautiful works is “Roses” by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. This picture seems to take us into a magical garden, where delicate flower petals play in the light, creating a feeling of a magical aromatic atmosphere. Renoir’s master plein air gives an opportunity to feel the warmth of the sun’s rays enveloping the flowers and their gentle interaction with the surrounding world.  In another work – “Roses and Cornflowers” by Vincent van Gogh – the emotional depth and saturation of colors attract the eye. Bright red roses contrast with a bright blue background. It seems that the artist’s brush passionately expresses his sense of self and perception of the beauty of nature.  The art of Giorgio O’Keeffe also contributed to the world of roses. His work “Abstract Rose” perfectly demonstrates a non-standard vision of this symbol. Forms and colors merge in unusual compositions, evoking associations with music and rhythm. The rose here becomes not only an object of sophistication, but also a source of inner harmony.  And one cannot fail to mention Andrzej Vrubel’s “Roses”, which combine mysticism and realism. Fairy-tale colors and eaves perspectives create an impression of magic, while the details of the roses captivate with their delicate and colorful images. These paintings of roses by famous artists are just a small part of the rich legacy they left to the world. The art of painting allows us to look into the depths of the human soul, revealing to us all the beauty and versatility of this symbol of nature and feelings.
