This watercolor painting depicts two detailed representations of the Love-in-a-Mist plant, showcasing the delicate blue flowers and feathery foliage. This artwork is a testament to Holtzbecker's skill in capturing the intricacies of nature, contributing to the rich tradition of botanical illustration in 17th-century Denmark. The piece is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
