This painting shows a single branch with three pink roses in different stages of bloom. The flowers have soft petals and some buds are just starting to open. Green leaves and small stems fill the rest of the space, all drawn with careful detail. The title at the bottom reads "Cabbage Province Rose," and the artist signed it as John Edwards. The style looks very precise, almost like a scientific drawing of plants. If you like this kind of detailed flower art, look up John Edwards (British) next.
