About the Item

This wonderful exhibited British Victorian floral still life oil painting is by female artist and flower painter Mary Rischgitz. Painted in 1886 it was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1887. It is a stunning opulent bouquet of delicate single dahlias in shades of red and white in a shiny brass vase on a table. A really lovely painting harking back to the Golden Age of Dutch flower paintings, by a gifted female artist who exhibited extensively throughout her artistic career. This painting has inspired me to try growing single dahlias from seed this year as they are so beautiful. Signed lower left. Provenance: Exhibited: Royal Academy 1887 No. 193 'Single Dahlias'. Ex Christies 1999 and 2001. Condition. Oil on canvas, 40 inches by 30 inches unframed and in good condition. Frame. Housed in an ornate gilt frame, 48 inches by 38 inches framed and in good condition. Mary Rischgitz (Exh. 1883-1906) was a London based flower and portrait painter.
