Toile imprimée pour broderie de perles (sans perles) « Bouquet »

“Bouquet” is a summer armful of poppies and daisies with wheat ears, visited by butterflies.

What the picture shows

At the centre are several large poppies in a warm red-orange tone with dark hearts, and below them open white daisies with yellow eyes. Green stems and golden wheat ears fan out through the bouquet. Two small butterflies hover to the left and right of the flowers, and a brown snail sits in the lower right corner. The background is a light watercolour wash that shifts from yellow at the top to fresh green at the bottom. The beading is partial: beads cover the flowers, leaves, wheat ears, butterflies and snail, while the soft background stays printed on the canvas and keeps the bouquet clearly readable.
