Vases and Flowers

1881 · Oil on canvas · Royal Collection (RCIN 403896)

An early still life (1881) held in the British Royal Collection (RCIN 403896) — concrete evidence that Preuschen’s work was collected at the highest level in England, even as her name later faded from the English-speaking record. It shows the lavish, decorative arrangement of vessels and cut flowers that first made her reputation.
