Ettore Cosomati (Naples 1871 - Milan 1960) Still life of Marigolds with lemons and pipe Oil on canvas in gilded frame Size: 53 x 45 cm (73 x 64 cm inc...

Signed and dated "C. Leroy 1840" in the lower right corner. A finely executed floral still life depicting an elegant arrangement of camellias and daisies in a transparent glass vase, set upon a wooden surface. The composition is carefully balanced, with lush pink camellia blossoms contrasted against the delicate white petals of daisies, creating both visual richness and botanical variety. The artist demonstrates a high level of technical skill in the rendering of textures: the velvety softness of the camellia petals, the crisp structure of the daisies, and the subtle reflections and refractions within the glass vessel. The dark, neutral background enhances the luminosity of the flowers, a compositional device rooted in traditional European still life painting. The palette is harmonious and refined, combining warm pinks and greens with deep, earthy browns. Fine craquelure across the surface attests to the painting’s age and authenticity, while contributing to its visual character. This work reflects the enduring tradition of 19th century naturalist and academic still life painting, appealing to collectors of classical floral compositions and decorative fine art. floral still life painting, camellia painting oil, daisies still life, 19th century flower painting...

The artist has an elegant mark of nature, and the experience of working en plein air allows her to capture emotions that would otherwise not be possible. She is considered Italy's best botanical artist and collaborates with many botanical gardens where she also holds watercolour courses, a technique she masters like few contemporary artists. The artist herself prepared the background in real, stainless gold, which gives it a modern, warm surface that chameleonically matches the colours of the surrounding walls. Margherita Leoni was born and raised in Italy, however, she spent most of her adult life in San Paulo, Brazil. It was there that she started a collaboration with the botanical faculty of the local university, allowing her to develop interesting research in rare botanical species studies and drawings. For this reason, most of her artworks, illustrate Brasilian botanical species, both rare and common. The artist's mastery of watercolour allows her to take part in botanical expeditions where she paints in plein air. Given her exquisite watercolour technique and her extensive botanical knowledge, Margherita Leoni is considered the heir of Margaret Mee. Among her most important exhibitions, three of her artworks were selected by Shirley Sherwood...
