Gerhard Richter’s 1995 oil on canvas ‘Tulips’ is a standout work from his acclaimed photo paintings series. The work began as a photograph from ‘Atlas’, Richter’s collection of photographs, newspaper cuttings and sketches which he has assembled since the 1960s, of a bouquet of yellow tulips in a green vase. This image is seemingly rendered through chiaroscuro as a spotlight appears to highlight the buds.
