1885-1895
Oil On Canvas
Although he may be best known as a landscape painter of New England salt marshes, some of Heade's finest works are his sensuous still-lifes of magnolia flowers. After moving to Florida in 1883, Heade became captivated by the Magnolia grandiflora blossoms that were abundant there. This painting depicts a large, voluptuous, highly detailed, and unblemished flower carefully arranged upon a drape of lush red velvet. The creamy white petals have a fleshy quality that appears in stark contrast to the plush velvet and dark green glossy leaves surrounding the flower. Heade is known to have made detailed oil sketches of magnolia blossoms: he used these to paint this subject again and again-sometimes with two or more blossoms, sometimes rearranging the foliage, or setting it against a different surface, but always focusing on the exquisite beauty of the plant.
Collectors often choose this fine art image when searching for fine art oil painting that feels substantial rather than decorative or disposable.
Oil on canvas remains the reference standard for traditional reproductions. Our artists apply pigment by hand, blending the fine art tones directly on the surface for depth that a printed fine art oil painting simply cannot match.
traditional canvas wall art is one of the easiest ways to warm a bedroom. Pair this piece with natural linen, dark wood, or brushed brass, and let the hand painted surface do the rest.
