Flowers in Art

We fell in love with the French artist Maurice Pillard Verneuil's (1869-1942) exquisite botanical drawings from "La Plante et ses Applications Ornementales" from 1896. 

Verneuil studied and developed his style under Eugène Grasset, a Franco-Swiss pioneer of Art Nouveau design. He is known for his contributions to the Art Deco movement through the use of bold floral designs in poster, textiles etc.
