Blanche Odin : "bouquets Of Violets And Mimosa"

Blanche Odin (1865-1957): "Bouquets of Violets and Mimosa", watercolor 37 X 55 cm, mounted by a cream marie-louise with gold thread in a modern gold baguette 61 X 77 cm. If Redouté was the greatest watercolorist of flowers of the first half of the 19th century, Blanche Odin is the greatest of the first half of the 20th. If, of course, it is her roses that have ensured in a well-deserved way, her reputation, she excelled in the representations of all kinds of flowers as can be seen in the excellent works of Monique Pujo-Monfran or by visiting the Salies museum in Bagnères de Bigorre. Winter flowers par excellence, these adorable bouquets of violets are accompanied in their basket by branches of mimosa of which a few yellow pompoms have fallen on the table...
