EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph print, titled "Nelumbo lutea et ses parties" or "The Water Lily, Nelumbo lutea, and Its Parts," is a beautiful example of the artistic innovation and intricacy of the late 19th century. Created by the Swiss artist Eugène Grasset in 1897, this work is a lithograph with pochoir (stencil) handcoloring, published in Paris as part of the collection "Plants and Their Application to Ornament." Grasset, a pioneering figure in the Art Nouveau movement, is renowned for his distinctive designs that blended natural forms with abstract patterns. In this print, he masterfully captures the ethereal beauty of the water lily, Nelumbo lutea, a plant native to the Eastern Hemisphere. The image showcases not only the full bloom of the water lily but also its various flower parts, providing a detailed and captivating representation of the plant's anatomy. The lithographic process, which involves drawing on a limestone plate and then transferring the image to paper using water and ink, allowed Grasset to create intricate lines and delicate shading. The addition of pochoir handcoloring further enhanced the print's vibrancy and depth, resulting in a visually stunning and visually engaging piece. This artwork, with its harmonious blend of natural forms and artistic expression, is a testament to Grasset's skill and the enduring influence of the Art Nouveau movement. The water lily, with its delicate petals and serene presence, continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists to this day.
