By downplaying indicators of depth, Khnopff transformed the shelf that supports the vase into an abstract stripe of blue against a crimson background. The Japanese fan and the pale pink, cream, and blue colors indicate the artist"s admiration for the innovative style of James McNeill Whistler (1834–1903). Whistler’s work was well-known among the artistic vanguard in Belgium, having been shown with the radical exhibition society Les XX in Brussels, which Khnopff helped found.
