Unfinished drawing of sweet pea blossoms is a 1888 watercolor by Bertram Potter, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Bertram Potter’s sweet pea watercolor from 1888 is a delicate floral study. He painted it while staying with family in the English countryside, where he and his sister sketched plants together. Though unfinished, the soft washes show his quiet skill with watercolor. It’s one of the few works he left behind—he focused more on encouraging Beatrix’s art than making his own. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
An unfinished drawing of sweet pea blossoms in red and violet was created by Bertram Potter in August 1888 while he was staying at Lingholm in Keswick. The work was executed in pencil and watercolour on paper. It was acquired by the Victoria and Albert Museum from Joan Duke in October 2006.
