The leaves, arranged alternately along the stem, are depicted with a vibrant green hue, offering a fresh and life-like appearance that contrasts beautifully against the serene blue of the blossoms.Redouté's artistry not only records the visual characteristics of the flora but also conveys the plant’s serene elegance, making it a timeless piece for both art enthusiasts and botanical scholars.
