This is a serene and softly atmospheric art print by Carlos Ríos, featuring two stylised vessels in muted clay, rose, and charcoal tones, set against a cool gradient backdrop. The composition is clean and geometric, softened by the gentle fade of colour and the delicate, linear arrangement of reeds rising from the rounded vase.
Ríos’s trademark aesthetic is evident here: smooth sculptural forms, subtle shading, and a quiet stillness that gives the work a contemporary yet timeless feel. The print is housed in a vintage frame with a cream mount, complementing the artwork’s understated elegance.
Carlos Ríos is a contemporary artist known for his minimalist, sculptural still lifes and soft airbrushed technique. His work gained popularity in the late 20th century, particularly during the 1980s and 1990s, when his prints were widely featured in interior design settings for their calming palette and modern geometric influence.
