Bladeren van een Rabarberachtige plant 1834 - 1879

"Bladeren van een Rabarberachtige plant" (Leaves of a rhubarb-like plant) is a watercolor painting by Cornelis Johannes de Vogel, created between 1834 and 1879. The artwork features a close-up depiction of a cluster of rhubarb-like leaves, rendered with detailed brushstrokes and subtle variations in green hues. This botanical study, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies de Vogel's meticulous observation of nature, capturing the intricate textures and forms of the plant with accuracy and artistic sensitivity.
