Rattan basket and yellow tulips are placed harmoniously on the left and right handed sides of the picture. The novel composition draws the viewer's visual focus from the center of the painting to the scenery behind. The proportionate of the picture is extended, the fiery power seems to spread from the center of emphasis to all directions. His full of personality signature and the way he writes the dates are undoubtedly his unique style. They are not hidden in the corner of the picture, but are placed next to the subject as an important part in balancing the composition of the picture. Buffet's artistic essence of using objects as metaphors for feelings is more in line with the introverted and reserved personality of the oriental people.
