A member of the group of painters known as the Scottish Colourists, Samuel Peploe was noted for his still life paintings. Pink Roses, Chinese Vase was painted when Peploe was experimenting with areas of vivid colour. He emphasized the differences between objects by using dark lines and believed that a different colour should be used for each plane.
About the artwork, this work was painted during a time when Peploe was experimenting with using areas of bright colour in his still life paintings. Peploe had spent time studying in Paris and was influenced by contemporary French painting. He felt that every plane was to be represented by a change of colour and selected material for his still lifes which could be treated in flat areas of strong colour: lemons, oranges, roses, tulips, blue and white china, bowls and drapes were his main subjects. In this work the outlines are bold - some are blue or dark red - to emphasise the objects and their relation to one another.
