- Lot Description
Jeanne Laurence (b. France 1887-1980). "Wild Roses and Forget Me Nots" - signed in the plate at lower left - ca. 1970s. A lovely print of one of Alaskan artist Jeanne Laurence's watercolor and gouache paintings. At this point in her career, Laurence specialized in studies of Alaskan wildflowers. In this composition, she presents an elegant branch of coral pink roses joined by sprays of soft blue and pink Forget Me Nots. The Germans named this flower for a beloved story of two lovers who were walking along the Danube River when the bright blue blossoms caught their attention. The man picked the flowers for the woman, but tragically, the river swept him away. As he floated away, he asked her not to forget him. This touching story led to the Forget-Me-Not flower becoming a symbol of remembrance. The floral still life is set against a black ground, creating a brilliant contrast, and set in a frame behind glass. Size (print): 7.75" W x 12.1" H (19.7 cm x 30.7 cm); (frame): 13.75" W x 21.1" H (34.9 cm x 53.6 cm)
Jeanne Laurence was the wife of famous Alaskan artist Sydney Laurence as well as author of "An Album of Alaskan Wildflowers" and "My Life with Sydney Laurence".
