EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of "Double Poppy, c. 1700" a watercolour drawing framed in black. Created by the French School in the 18th century, this remarkable piece measures 24.5x18 cm and belongs to a private collection. The artwork is part of "The Culture of Flowers" or "La Culture des Fleurs" a botanical manuscript that celebrates the enchanting world of flowers. With its delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors, this close-up depiction captures the essence of an early 18th-century floral masterpiece. The hand-drawn poppies stand out against a pristine white background, their purple petals radiating elegance and grace. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, showcasing their mastery over decorative techniques. Accompanied by handwritten French text, this watercolour drawing immerses viewers into the realm of botany and biology. Each element - from the flowering plant itself to its surrounding environment - contributes to an immersive experience that transports us back in time. As we admire this single stem with double blooms delicately arranged on paper, we can't help but appreciate how art has always been intertwined with nature's wonders. This extraordinary piece serves as a testament to both human creativity and Mother Nature's boundless inspiration. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are granted access to continental pictures like these that have stood the test of time – preserving history while igniting our imagination for generations to come.
