'Bouquet of Flowers' is a prime example of Naïve art (primitivism), created by acclaimed French post-impressionist artist, Henri Julien Félix Rousseau, better known as Le Douanier. Known for his unique style, Rousseau left his toll and tax collector job in his 40s to dedicate himself fully to painting.

Using a bold and vivid color palette, the artist captures the flowers in a detailed and captivating manner, creating a harmonious yet intriguing contrast to the simplicity of his naive painting style.
