From the Courtauld.

Some more information from the Impressionists Gallery:

Between 1878 and 1882, for the only extended period in his career, Monet concentrated on still lifes. He was likely motivated in part by financial concerns: opulent flower paintings found a readier market at this time than did his landscapes. The present work is one of 21 floral still lifes he undertook during this time, and contrasts notably with the few paintings of cultivated cut flowers he produced in the 1860s, which adhere more closely to the conventions established for the genre by eighteenth-century painters such as Chardin ...

The blossoms and foliage are rendered in thick, short dabs of paint that, rather than defining their forms, convey a raw, unfiltered impression, very much in keeping with Monet’s interest in vision as the pure sensation of light and colour.
