Mary Penny's Lovely and Lyrical Fuchsia Flowers Watercolor, Early 1900s

Regular price $30.00

Though the flowers here are "Fuchsia Flowers," the color of them is more blood red, such that at first I wanted to call them Bleeding Hearts, and they're  somewhat similar the way they hang down. Really quite a lyrical watercolor,  with great combination of delicacy (those fine trails of orange stems) and boldness (lush green leaves). I have to think painted from nature by Mary Penny's of the "fifth class." Lovely.

 7 3/4" x 5 1/8". Very good condition. Watercolor with some graphite outlines on wove.
