Roses by Harry Lane | Lush 1945 Still Life

Roses by Harry Lane is a vivid, romantic still life lithograph printed in 1945, showcasing Lane’s skill for transforming everyday blooms into dramatic vintage compositions that brighten any wall.

This piece features a striking arrangement of richly colored roses in a classic green glass vase — but the unexpected highlight is the whimsical figurine of a monkey playing a cello at the base. This playful mid-century detail adds a touch of humor and charm, nodding to a time when quirky figurines and folk art brought warmth to 1940s interiors.

Originally printed by Catalda Fine Arts, Roses is part of our Harry Lane floral series — style it alone or pair it with Primroses, Anemones, Pansies, or Cyclamen for a timeless vintage gallery wall. Choose the medium size (19" × 16") for a crisp look, or the large edition (26" × 22") with its soft pink border that frames your wall with no extra effort.

Each piece is an authentic “new vintage” find — never framed, never displayed, preserved flat since printing and sourced directly from unopened mid-century stock.
