EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph by Verneuil, featuring an Iris plant and its intricately detailed flower parts, is a captivating example of the artistic innovation and mastery of Swiss artist Eugene Grasset during the late 19th century. Created using the lithographic process with pochoir (stencil) handcoloring, this print is taken from Grasset's seminal work, "Plants and their Application to Ornament," published in Paris in 1897. Grasset's designs were influential in the Art Nouveau movement, which emerged at the end of the 19th century as a reaction against the industrialization and mass production of the Victorian era. His work showcased a deep appreciation for the natural world and a desire to integrate organic forms into decorative art. The Iris plant, with its distinctive fan-shaped leaves and vibrant, bi-colored flowers, has long been a favorite subject for artists and gardeners alike. In this print, the various parts of the Iris flower are rendered in exquisite detail, from the delicate sepals and petals to the intricate structure of the stamens and pistil. The lithographic process, which involves drawing on a limestone plate with a greasy crayon or ink, allows for a high degree of detail and tonal range. The addition of pochoir handcoloring, which involves applying color through a stencil, adds an extra layer of vibrancy and depth to the print. This beautiful Iris print is not only a testament to Grasset's artistic skill and vision, but also a reminder of the enduring beauty and inspiration that can be found in the natural world.
