“I must have flowers, always, and always.” - Claude Monet
Flowers in art throughout the history: from a minor decorative addition to other subjects like in Egyptian tomb paintings to representations of medieval religious symbols to large, abstract close-ups of Georgia O'Keeffe – these marvels of beauty have been fascinating artists over and over. Is the art of depicting flowers an art of the past? The challenge for the artist is to capture and to revive the essence of the flowers.
