Studie af blomst og jordbær 1749

This 1749 watercolor by Johanna Fosie, titled "Studie af blomst og jordbær," depicts a delicate cluster of white flowers, likely jasmine, and five ripe strawberries. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the soft, nuanced colors and subtle textures of the plant life. The composition, which places the flower high on the page and the strawberries low, suggests a sense of balance and harmony found in nature. The piece is part of a larger sketchbook, highlighting Fosie’s meticulous study of flora during her short artistic career. "Studie af blomst og jordbær" is now part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
