Bouquet of Small Chrysanthemums is a mid 19th century still life watercolor by Léon Bonvin. The drawing, which depicts a vase of flowers set on a table, is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]

Poor and largely self-taught, Bonvin, born in Vaugirard near Paris, went largely unrecognized by the art world and hung himself in 1866 at the age of 32.[2]
