This anonymous watercolor drawing from the period of 1770-1816 depicts a delicate floral wreath surrounding a handwritten inscription. The wreath features pink roses and forget-me-nots, arranged in a delicate and symmetrical pattern. The inscription is written in German, likely containing a personal message or inscription. The artwork's small size and delicate details suggest it was likely a personal memento or keepsake, reflecting the artistic trends of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, which favored romantic and sentimental themes. This artwork is an example of the "Forget-me-not", a popular motif in art and literature of the time, signifying remembrance and affection.
