This anonymous 19th-century fan design features delicate pink roses and sweet pea blossoms painted on a cream-colored background. The fan's scalloped edge, meticulously rendered with fine lines, adds a touch of elegance to the design. The stylized floral motif, common in decorative arts of the period, showcases the artist's keen eye for detail and the beauty of natural forms. This artwork is a lovely example of the delicate floral designs that adorned fans, objects of both beauty and practicality, in the 19th century.
