Lot 12

Description

Anthonie Eleanore Christensen, 
Danish 1849-1926- 

Floral still life with globe flowers, forget-me-nots and butterflies in a woodland setting; 

oil on canvas, signed with monogram and dated 'AC 1876' (lower right), 48.8 x 40.3 cm. 

Provenance: 
with Paolo Antonacci Antichita, Rome. 
Property of the late Hugo Morley-Fletcher, MA FSA (1940-2022). 

Note: 
Christensen studied under the flower painter Emma Thomsen (1820-1897), as well as her own mother, Eleonora Tscherning (1817-1890). She also later worked as a painting instructor herself,
with her pupils including Queen Louise of Denmark (1817-1898) and Queen Olga of Greece (1851-1926). 

The present work exhibits the crisp, highly-detailed quality which characterises her paintings, as well as the striking contrast of the bright flowers against the darkness of the forest floor.
