Study of Flowers and Figures
Dedicated to fellow Symbolist painter Eugène Carrière, this whimsical sketch transforms giant poppy petals into a shelter for tiny, ethereal figures napping within the blooms. The diagonal hatching in the background creates a sense of movement, like a gentle rain falling on this miniature world where humans and nature blur into one. It’s a perfect example of the Symbolist love for dreams and the subconscious, turning a simple flower study into a mystical landscape.
