A delicate Art Nouveau botanical illustration of a white-flowered gourd by Maurice Pillard Verneuil, showcasing the beauty of nature in a refined and elegant style. Perfect for adding a touch of vintage charm to your home.

This exquisite botanical illustration, 'Courge (White-Flowered Gourd)', is by the French artist Maurice Pillard Verneuil, dating from 1896. Verneuil was a prominent figure in the Art Nouveau movement, known for his decorative designs that drew inspiration from nature. This piece is from 'La Plante et ses Applications ornementales', a series showcasing the ornamental potential of plants. The artwork features a detailed study of a white-flowered gourd, meticulously rendered with delicate lines and subtle watercolour washes. The composition is both scientific and artistic, presenting the plant in various stages of growth, from bud to bloom, alongside the mature gourd. The colour palette is restrained, with soft greens and creams lending a sense of natural elegance. As a fine art print, this piece brings a touch of Art Nouveau sophistication to any interior. Its botanical subject matter and muted tones make it a versatile addition to a living room, study, or hallway, complementing both modern and traditional decor. The intricate detail and historical significance of the print make it a conversation starter, while its calming aesthetic creates a serene atmosphere.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
