About the piece

Painted in 1882, Hugo Salmson’s 'Picking Flowers' captures a moment of quiet repose in the countryside. The young subject, dressed in traditional rural garments, sits amidst lush greenery with a basket of fresh blooms, rendered with the soft, luminous light and naturalist precision characteristic of late 19th-century European painting.
