Magnolia is a 1804 by Mary Altha Nims, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a large white flower with a yellow center, surrounded by big green leaves. The flower is in the middle of the picture, and the leaves are spread out around it. The background is a light color, which makes the flower and leaves stand out. The flower is painted in a very detailed way, with lines that show its texture. The leaves are also painted with a lot of detail, and you can see the veins in them. The whole picture looks very realistic.
