About the piece

Created in 1883 by Friedrich Carl von Scheidlin, this botanical drawing showcases a masterful use of watercolor or gouache. The cool, muted teals and greens of the foliage contrast beautifully with the warm, earthy tone of the paper, while a soft, dark shadow adds a sense of three-dimensional depth and atmosphere to the composition.
