Figure of Woman is an Original Ink and Watercolor drawing realized by Paul de Longpré (1855-1911). Good condition on a yellowed paper, included a white cardboard passpartout (49x35 cm). Hand-signed by the artist on the lower margin. Paul de Longpré (1855–1911), was a French painter of flowers, who worked mainly in the United States. De Longpré painted only perfect specimens of flowers. With a delicacy of touch and feeling for color he united scientific knowledge and art. He also knew how to give expression to the subtle essence of the flowers. Painting floral scenes almost exclusively in watercolors, in the 1900s de Longpre found inspiration in the 4,000 rose bushes he planted on his Hollywood estate. The finest of his paintings include Double Peach Blossoms and White Fringed Poppies (1902) – both widely known through popular reproductions. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
