From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
This painting shows five different plants with green leaves and delicate flowers. Some flowers are white, one is pink, and one is blue. The roots are drawn carefully, spreading out from the base of each plant. The background is plain, letting the plants stand out clearly. The artist paid close attention to small details, like the shape of each leaf and the veins inside. The colors are soft and natural, making the plants look real.
