This magnificent watercolor on paper painting is by the Victorian artist, Raoul de Longpre. Raoul was born in 1859 in Villeurbanne, France, and was the younger brother of another famous artist, Paul de Longpre. In almost all of Raoul's paintings, he included his favorite flower, the Spring lilac. This combination of old pink roses and white lilacs is spectacular. In Victorian times, the pink rose symbolized that the bearer was an "Ambassador of Love", while the white lilac symbolized "Youthful Innocence"...such a sweet combination. This painting is in fine condition, and is museum quality. Please refer to all the photos for closeup examination of its superb detail presentation and condition. The execution details are outstanding and quite intricate. The de Longpre family is well documented in Davenport's Art and & Reference Guide, as well as many other art sources such as AskArt on the web.

The painting is framed entirely of museum-quality conservation materials. It has a green sueded mat with a gold liner, and the thick frame compliments the floral bouquet beautifully with its flower and scroll high relief design. (Please note, there is a little glass glare in some of the photos.)

The painting is signed lower right "Raoul M. de Longpre, fils" (fils is the French name for son, perhaps to distinguish his paintings from that of his father, who was also a well known painter). This painting comes from the collection of Nancy C. Hall, the author of the book "The Life & Art of Paul de Longpre". If you should desire, it can be hand autographed on the dust jacket for you.

The sight size of the painting is aprox 19.25 x 26 inches, and the overall size with the frame is 31.5x 39 inches. FedEx overnight shipping is highly recommended. Postage is an ESTIMATE, and will be adjusted for you at checkout.
