Kamelier og rhododendron is a 1852 oil by Johan Laurentz Jensen, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a bouquet of flowers, with white camellias in the foreground and pink rhododendrons behind them. The flowers are set against a dark background, which makes them stand out. The artist has used oil paint to create the image. The flowers are painted in a realistic style, with lots of detail and texture. The camellias have big, showy petals, while the rhododendrons have smaller, more delicate blooms. The leaves are a deep green color, which contrasts with the lighter colors of the flowers.
