Amaryllis en walnoten 1820 - 1833

"Amaryllis en walnoten" is a graphite drawing by Anton Weiss, a Dutch artist known for his botanical illustrations. This artwork, which dates to between 1820 and 1833, depicts a delicate Amaryllis flower with a stem of small flowers, and a pair of walnuts on a light background. Weiss's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the subtle shading of the flower petals and the texture of the walnuts. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this drawing is a testament to Weiss's mastery of botanical illustration.
