EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning botanical study of Nasturtium, created through the intricate process of lithography with pochoir (stencil) handcoloring, is an exquisite example of the Art Nouveau design aesthetic. Hailing from Paris in 1897, this work of art is a masterpiece by the skilled hand of Eugène Grasset, a renowned French artist and designer. The Nasturtium plant, with its vibrant, ornate flowers and heart-shaped leaves, is depicted in meticulous detail. The lithographic process, which involves drawing on a flat stone or metal plate with a greasy crayon or pen, allows for the intricacies of the plant's form to be captured with remarkable precision. The addition of pochoir handcoloring elevates the image to new heights, with each petal, vein, and leaf meticulously filled in with rich, saturated hues. Eugène Grasset's Plants and Their Application to Ornament is a testament to the artist's deep appreciation for the natural world and his ability to translate its beauty into captivating designs. This particular Nasturtium study showcases his mastery of the lithographic and pochoir techniques, resulting in a visually stunning and historically significant work of art. The intricate details and bold colors make it a standout piece in any botanical or Art Nouveau collection, providing a glimpse into the artistic and scientific exploration of the natural world during the late 19th century.
