WORKSHOP OF MARIA SIBYLLA MERIAN (1647-1717)
Still life with flowers tied at the stems
c.1705?RCIN 921234
Merian began her career as a flower painter, and continued to make studies of plants and flowers throughout her life. This watercolour has been kept in an album for most of its history, and as a result of rarely being exposed to light the colours are still vivid.
