The Melon. A Perfect Recreation™ of the original watercolor and gouache on paper by Jacques LeMoyne de Morgues, c. 1570. 5 ¾” x 7 ¼”.
The LeMoyne Melon is one of eighty original watercolors that comprise what may be the most important and rare florilegium (a compendium of flower paintings by a single artist) of the 16th century. More than four hundred years after its execution, this painting retains the color and luminosity of a contemporary work. The extraordinary detail of the fruit – and the exposed and vibrant orange flesh and seeds – creates an almost three-dimensional impression. Our Perfect Recreation™ captures all of these qualities as well as the feeling of the now antique paper originally prepared as vellum. "Gorgeous botanical prints in exquisite detail".
What The Media Say "Absolutely perfect and magnificent".
