    • J.L. MacFarlane watercolor Orchid Study
      Jun. 03, 2017

      J.L. MacFarlane watercolor Orchid Study

      Est: $4,000 - $6,000

      Orchid Study. J. L. MacFarlane (19th Century). Watercolor on paper. 26 3/4 x 20 inches visible, 38 x 31 1/2 inches framed. James Laird MacFarlane was one of the most noted botanical artists of the 19th century to focus on orchids, and a catalyst of what can aptly be termed British “orchidomania.” These superb, exceptionally large-scale watercolors are foremost examples of his work. MacFarlane captured with outstanding naturalism and vibrancy the alternate subtlety and flamboyance of the orchids, the textures of their soft, often translucent petals and opaque leaves and stems. Each defining characteristic is illuminated in profound detail, creating the most breathtakingly beautiful images of orchids to come on the market.
