Campanula 1873

"Campanula," a delicate watercolor by Danish artist Christen Dalsgaard, showcases a single stalk of bellflowers against a soft, off-white background. The artist's meticulous detail captures the delicate texture and vibrant hues of the flowers, which range from soft pinks to deep purples. Dalsgaard, known for his botanical paintings, creates a sense of quiet beauty and naturalism in this work, highlighting the subtle elegance of the common campanula. The piece, completed in 1873, is now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
