About the Item

A pair of fine hand painted botanical watercolour studies on silk of anemones by La Roche Laffitte. The works are signed bottom right. Both are titled. The silk has been mounted on handmade paper with a gilt framing line and has hand finished edges. Two beautiful yet simple paintings of wonderfully colourful anemones executed with great precision and detail. Both paintings are titled 'Anemonum' and include charming studies of butterflies and beetles. Laffitte has captured all the beauty of the flowers as well as the rigidity of the leaf and flower. A charming pair fit to grace any interior. This contemporary artist, born in 1943, specialises in watercolour studies on hand-made paper. With his highly detailed and precisely painted studies he invites us into the magical world of cultural objects, flora and fauna. The treasures of nature along with tribal regalia is his main inspiration. All of his work is beautifully observed and executed down to the smallest detail.
