Robert Cox (1934–2001) — “Rose Bouquet” Original Oil Painting Signed lower right. Circa 1970s–80s. Oil on canvas, framed in giltwood with black velvet liner. Framed dimensions: approx. 13¾" x 15½" Oil on canvas, signed lower right by listed artist Robert Cox (American, 1930–2001), known for his romantic floral compositions. This piece features a lush bouquet of pink roses, snapdragons, and wildflowers arranged in a rounded red vase, rendered in soft pastel tones against a muted background. The brushwork is expressive yet controlled, with delicate highlights that evoke light filtering through petals. Framed in a double-layered structure: an ornate gold and black velvet outer frame with a wood stretcher interior. The back is marked “Mexico," with a partial remnant of the original Starving Artists Group label—an organization known for distributing affordable original art in the mid-20th century, often through traveling sales events. Condition: Excellent vintage condition with no scuffs, nicks, or frame damage. Provenance: Estate collection
