Star-glory Morning-glory is a 1827 by Henry Joseph Redouté, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a cluster of morning-glory flowers growing on a vine. The petals are deep purple, blue, and pink, with yellow centers. The leaves are green and slightly wavy, and the stems twist gently as they hold up the blooms. The flowers look almost too perfect, like they’re made of silk. This style was popular in the early 1800s when artists focused on nature’s beauty in great detail. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
