EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 19th century artwork, titled "Pansies" by Gerardina Jacoba van de Sande Bakhuyzen, invites viewers to delve into the captivating world of these beloved flowers. Created in the 1860s, this masterpiece showcases the artist's exceptional skill in botanical painting. The low country native of the Netherlands, Bakhuyzen, masterfully captures the intricate details of the pansies' velvety petals and their distinctive yellow centers, set against a pristine cream background. The close-up composition, with its selective focus, invites us to appreciate the delicate beauty of these flowers up close. The artist's use of watercolor over traces of graphite with selectively applied glaze on cream moderately thick slightly textured paper adds depth and dimension to the image. The pansies appear as if they have been plucked fresh from the garden and placed on the canvas for our admiration. This painting is a testament to the artist's dedication to the natural world and her ability to bring the beauty of nature to life through her art. As a still life study, it also showcases the artist's expertise in the studio setting, allowing her to manipulate the lighting and composition to her advantage. The Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland, is fortunate to have this heritage piece in its collection, allowing us to enjoy the timeless beauty of Bakhuyzen's work and the enchanting allure of pansies.
