Roses and Larkspur | Bold, Elegant 1940s Floral

Bring timeless floral elegance into your space with Roses and Larkspur by Mary and Nelson Grofe. This offset lithograph, originally printed in the 1940s, captures the richness of golden yellow roses and delicate blue larkspur, arranged in a painterly vase set against a dramatic black background. The warm burnt orange cloth beneath the vase adds depth and an inviting glow, drawing the eye closer to every brushstroke.

Pair It Perfectly

Roses and Larkspur is striking on its own, but even more stunning when paired with its companion piece, Zinnias and Larkspur. Together, these mid-century florals create a timeless statement of vivid color and vintage warmth.

Hang the two Grofe lithographs side by side to showcase their dramatic contrasts — the golden roses against deep black and the colorful zinnias set on cobalt blue. Together, they brighten any wall and stay fresh forever.
