The flower sellers 1892

"The Flower Sellers" is a watercolor painting by Augustus Edwin Mulready, created in 1892. The painting depicts two young girls, one holding a basket of flowers and the other standing beside her, in a rainy street scene. The artist captures the innocence of childhood, the beauty of nature, and the harsh realities of street life in a small-scale, intimate composition. Mulready's work is known for its attention to detail, evocative use of light and shadow, and sentimental subject matter. The small size of the artwork (23.8 x 14.9 cm) adds to the intimate feel of the scene, drawing the viewer in to observe the delicate details.
