Red Rose 1792 - 1861

Georgius Jacobus Johannes van Os's "Red Rose" is a delicate watercolor drawing depicting a single rose in full bloom. The artist was a Dutch painter known for his detailed botanical studies, which he rendered with masterful precision and a keen eye for color. This drawing, created between 1792 and 1861, showcases van Os's ability to capture the beauty and fragility of nature. The subtle shading and realistic details of the petals, stem, and leaves bring the rose to life, making it a beautiful and timeless example of botanical art. This piece is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
