Oak apples is a 1907 watercolor by Anna Airy, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows a branch heavy with fruit. It’s by Anna Airy, made between 1900 and 1914. The work feels fresh and light, just like her style. Airy got famous fast. She won praise before finishing art school at 21. Her fruit branch also nods to the Japan-inspired prints that swept Europe then. Look up her other wartime paintings next.
