EDITORS COMMENTS
Cherry Ripe" is a stunning watercolor drawing by the talented Irish artist, Jessie Douglas (fl. 1893-1928). This beautiful artwork, which measures approximately 12.7 x 17.8 cm, showcases Douglas's exquisite attention to detail and her ability to capture the essence of nature. The subject of the painting is a luscious, ripe cherry, its deep red color contrasting beautifully against the lush green leaves and stems. Douglas's use of watercolor technique is masterful, with the delicate brushstrokes creating a sense of depth and texture that brings the cherry to life. The paper, which has a slight yellowing with age, adds to the authenticity and charm of the piece. The artist's skillful rendering of the cherry's intricate surface details, from the tiny veins on the leaves to the tiny seeds on the fruit, is truly remarkable. The title "Cherry Ripe" suggests that this artwork was created during the peak of cherry season, when the fruit is at its juiciest and most flavorful. The drawing captures the essence of this moment in time, inviting the viewer to imagine the taste and texture of the luscious cherry. Jessie Douglas was a prolific Irish artist who is known for her watercolor paintings of flowers, landscapes, and still lifes. Her work was exhibited in various galleries in Ireland and the UK during her career, and she was a member of the Royal Hibernian Academy. "Cherry Ripe" is a testament to her talent and her love of nature, and it continues to be a beloved piece among art collectors and enthusiasts today. This watercolor drawing is a rare and beautiful addition to any art collection, and it is sure to bring joy and inspiration to anyone who appreciates the natural world and the artistry of a skilled painter. The image is available as a high-resolution print from Mary Evans Prints Online, making it an accessible and affordable way to bring the beauty of nature into your home or office.
