"The Outing Magazine" Last Rose of Summer Original Cover Illustration
By Maxfield Parrish
Located in Fort Washington, PA
The Outing Magazine commissioned Parrish to provide a cover illustration for their 1899 Last Rose of Summer edition (published December 1899). In the poster, Maxfield used his own face and figure to portray a youth in Grecian costume examining a rose he holds in his hand. The figure is shown sitting below one of the massive oaks on the artist’s property, flanked by two plaster lions the artist had moulded in his studio.
The depiction harks back to the 1805 poem by the Irish poet, Thomas Moore:
‘Tis the last rose of summer,
Left blooming alone;
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone;
No flower of her kindred,
No rose-bud is nigh,
To reflect back her blushes
Or give sigh for sigh!
I’ll not leave thee, thou lone one...

Cherry Blossom No. 12, Original Minimalist Floral Watercolor Still Life Study
By Elizabeth Becker
Located in Boston, MA
Cherry Blossom No. 12, Original Minimalist Floral Still Life Study, 2020
20" x 16" (HxW) Watercolor on Cold Pressed Paper
A simple and minimalist nature study, this botanical watercolor painting features a large, pink cherry blossom caressed by a delicate sprig of leaves in a deep olive green. A gray and blue shadow indicates depth, allowing the flower to appear as if it is popping out of the composition. The soft color palette and brush strokes, along with the bleeding nature of the watercolors, gives this work an expressive and impressionist feel.
Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed.
