"Cherokee Roses on a Purple Velvet Cloth" is a notable still life painting by the American artist Martin Johnson Heade (1819–1904), who is renowned for his works that capture the beauty of flowers, landscapes, and seascapes with a particular emphasis on light and atmosphere. This painting is part of Heade's extensive body of work that focuses on floral subjects, which he pursued alongside his more famous series of hummingbird paintings.

Created in the latter half of the 19th century, "Cherokee Roses on a Purple Velvet Cloth" exemplifies Heade's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to render textures and surfaces with a high degree of realism. The painting features a cluster of Cherokee roses, which are characterized by their large, white, fragrant flowers and are native to the southeastern United States. These roses are depicted resting on a sumptuously textured purple velvet cloth, which provides a rich contrast to the delicate petals and green foliage of the roses.

Heade's interest in botany and ornithology is evident in his careful study of the roses, capturing their naturalistic appearance and the way light interacts with their forms. The composition is both simple and elegant, allowing viewers to focus on the interplay of color, light, and shadow. The use of a purple velvet cloth not only adds a sense of luxury to the scene but also serves to enhance the visual impact of the white roses through complementary contrast.

The painting is a testament to Heade's skill as a still life painter and his unique place in American art history. Unlike many of his contemporaries who were influenced by the Hudson River School, Heade's work is often categorized within the Luminism movement, which is characterized by a focus on the effects of light and a more intimate portrayal of nature.

"Cherokee Roses on a Purple Velvet Cloth" is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its contribution to the understanding of American still life painting in the 19th century. It remains an important work within Martin Johnson Heade's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
