  1. "Untitled (Yellow House with Yellow Roses)," Matilda Browne, after 1918.

    Browne (1869-1947) was an American Impressionist artist, and a noted member of the Old Lyme, CT artists' colony...in fact, the only female painter they took seriously.

    She showed talent as a child, and luckily was a neighbor of Hudson School painter Thomas Moran, who taught the young Matilda and encouraged her gifts. By age 12 she had a painting accepted as part of an exhibit at the American Academy of Design.

    She traveled Europe, where she learned from many significant painters, and returned to the US where she earned a reputation as a skilled artist of landscapes, animals, and florals. She also married author Frederick Van Wyck, and had a long and successful career.

    Here's the house she lived in at Old Lyme, in the summer with the roses blooming...

    Happy Flower Friday!

  7. Einen schönen Guten Morgen! 😀 👋

    Zum #FlowerFriday heute eine Gemeine Wegwarte (Cichorium intybus), auch bekannt als Zichorie. Aus ihren Wurzeln kann ein gesunder, koffeinfreier Kaffee-Ersatz hergestellt werden (den ich allerdings noch nicht probiert habe).

  8. "Roses, Orange Blossom, and Other Flowers in a Blue Vase," Anna Vallayer-Coster, c. 1800.

    Vallayer-Coster (1744-1818) was a French painter best known for her still lifes, which was not a popular genre of painting at the time...but she was, and is, noted as a very skilled artist in that school.

    She achieved fame and recognition early on, at the age of 26, and her works (including portraits, florals, and scenes of everyday life as well as still lifes) were in demand by the aristocracy.

    Her career was hurt by the French Revolution. A very private and hardworking woman, she was spared the anger and bloodshed, but the market for her work dried up. Reportedly she worked in a tapestry factory for a while, just to make a living, and was still painting up until a few years before her passing at 73.

    Today, while not regarded as a genius,, she is admired for her ability to treat just about anything with a certain grandeur, and to make everything seem solid and permanent, even flowers.

    Happy Flower Friday!

  9. #FotoVorschlag

    “Im Rahmen” / Framed

    Lilacs, pt 1.

    The lilac bushes in the local community garden have been trimmed back this year, which makes me a bit sad as I can only see them behind bars when I pass by. I hope they’ll be allowed to spill over the fence in the future, as they used to do.

  21. "Bouquet of Flowers in a Vase," Vincent van Gogh, 1890.

    Thought I'd post some art early today; going off to a concert tonight!

    Y'all know Van Gogh. This painting is a bit of a mystery to art historians. He never mentioned it in his letters, and he talked about nearly everything he did in those letters. The bouquet of summer flowers is similar to work he did in Paris, while the vase is the same used in a painting of irises during his time in Saint-Remy, in southern France. But the style and brushstrokes point to this being painted in the weeks leading up to his death in 1890.

    Happy Flower Friday!
