Jean Louis Prévost (French, ca 1760-1810) Oleander Study Watercolor and gouache on paper Signed lower right: JL Prevost Paper size: 9 x 14 in Jean Louis Prévost was a successful and widely renowned flower painter, respected his watercolor and oil paintings, and for his engraved works. His paintings were consistently exhibited in the prestigious Paris Salon, and his original watercolors served as models for a series of exquisite color-plate botanical books. His Collection des Fleurs et des Fruits is one of the greatest French flower books of the early 19th century. Unlike Redouté, his great contemporary, Prévost s intention with his works was not primarily scientific. His great Collection was intended as a reference work for china and fabric pattern designers. Prévost here demonstrates his mastery of the traditional still-life genre. These strong compositions indicate his aesthetic concerns, while the delicate, detailed and highly accurate depiction of each flower also exemplifies the artist s exceptional rendering skill. Although he was not primarily a botanist, all of Prévost s works were based on careful observation of specimens. Loca: 6.5BH. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers AP00554
