EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a unique piece of artistry from the early 20th century - a greeting card made entirely out of plastic. The card features delicate hand-painted roses and charming robins, meticulously crafted by an unknown English artist from the 19th century. The vibrant colors of the roses come to life against the translucent plastic backdrop, while the robins add a touch of whimsy to this enchanting composition. A beautifully tied bow and ribbon adorn the top corner, adding an elegant finishing touch. This exquisite greeting card is not just a mere token; it represents more than meets the eye. It symbolizes love and affection conveyed through carefully chosen botanical elements - roses being synonymous with romance throughout history. Beyond its sentimental value, this artwork also serves as a testament to human ingenuity in utilizing unconventional materials for artistic expression. The use of plastic in such intricate craftsmanship during that time period was truly innovative. As we admire this remarkable creation captured by eDavid Pearson's lens, we are reminded of nature's beauty and our ability to capture it through various mediums. This print invites us into a world where art intertwines with science, showcasing how flowers can become powerful weapons in expressing emotions and preserving natural history for generations to come.
