About the Item

This is a beautiful and highly decorative watercolor painting, featuring a charming garden scene filled with pink and white hollyhocks alongside blooming roses. Nestled among the delicate flowers is a butterfly, quietly resting and adding a touch of liveliness to the tranquil composition. In the background, an old arched stone wall, partially covered by trees and lush greenery, provides a sense of depth and timelessness to the setting. Although the painting is unfortunately unsigned, it demonstrates a high level of artistic skill and attention to detail, suggesting it was created by a talented hand. Possibly of English origin, the work dates to the late 19th century, during a period when such botanical and garden scenes were particularly popular. The painting has been well preserved over the years and shows no visible damage. It remains in good condition overall. The frame is of a later date, but complements the piece nicely without detracting from the artwork itself.
