Cascarone c. 1936

"Cascarone" is a watercolor artwork by Ann Gene Buckley, created around 1936. It depicts a delicate flower with an egg-shaped center, adorned with a blue star-shaped design. The flower is depicted in a simple and elegant style, suggesting a sense of fragility and beauty. The artwork is an excellent example of Buckley's detailed and realistic style, which often featured floral motifs. This work's name, "Cascarone," might be a nod to the Italian tradition of "Cascarones," hollowed-out eggs filled with confetti.
