50 of the world's greatest floral paintings, each with an accompanying essay by an art historian.
A celebration of some of the world’s greatest flower paintings as well as an enlightening look at how our environment has changed, this book features 50 remarkable flower paintings from throughout history.
The paintings themselves act as fingerprints of the past, revealing what particular flowers were popular, and details of their shape, colour and size. Alongside the plant analysis, art historian Susie Hodge also reveals much about the artists and the works, such as the artist’s individual relationships to flowers and how and why they painted them.
Featured artworks include Ophelia by John Everett Millais, Grasshopper and Iris by Katsushika Hokusai, Lilac in a Window by Mary Cassatt, Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh, Water Lilies and Japanese Bridge by Claude Monet and Two-Foot Flowers by Andy Warhol. Combining insightful essays and wonderful illustrations Flowers & Art is a highly accessible art book and gift for all nature lovers.
