A striking and unusual double-sided floral watercolor painting by Florence Strauss, featuring two richly colored botanical compositions—each with its own distinct mood and palette. Side 1: Luminous, softly unfolding white blossoms in warm tones of apricot, blush, and gold, set against a deep, atmospheric ground of indigo and violet with green leaves floating through. The flowers appear almost backlit, their petals glowing with layered color and subtle transitions that evoke the quiet intensity of dusk. The reverse reveals a bold "blue irise" study, rendered in saturated violets and electric blues, punctuated by vivid yellow stamens. Here, Strauss leans into heightened contrast and sculptural form, with petals curling and folding in a more dramatic, almost abstracted composition. Signed “Strauss,” the piece offers the rare versatility of two distinct artworks in one, making it especially compelling for flexible display—whether rotated seasonally or displayed vertically or horizontally within a floating frame to showcase both sides.
