About this work

This is a single pink camellia flower with dark green leaves. The petals are soft and slightly ruffled, with faint red streaks near the edges. The background is plain, letting the flower stand out clearly. The name written below it reads *Camellia japonica*. This kind of flower was often studied closely by artists in the 1800s.
