Diego Rivera – The Flower vendor 1
The Flower Vendor 1 – Diego Rivera
The Flower Vendor 1 is a painting by Diego Rivera: Mexican women and children with huge bundles of white calla lilies. We paint our hand-painted study of The Flower Vendor 1 to order on canvas, in oil or acrylic, in 8 sizes from 40 × 50 cm to 150 × 190 cm or in a custom size. Before The Flower Vendor 1 is dispatched, we send you a photo of the finished painting.
What does The Flower Vendor 1 show?
The Flower Vendor 1 shows, in the centre, a woman in a pink blouse holding a large bundle of white calla lilies with green stems, on the left a girl in a yellow skirt carrying a bouquet, and in front a stooping man and a woman with two long braids in a blue shawl tying the flowers. Rivera painted ordinary people and everyday Mexican life, which is why The Flower Vendor 1 breathes warmth, work and beauty.
How is our hand-painted study of The Flower Vendor 1 made?
Our painters paint the study of The Flower Vendor 1 by hand, with brushstrokes of different thickness, separately for every order. We paint in oil or acrylic, depending on the subject and the size, so the surface of The Flower Vendor 1 has a real paint texture that a print does not have. When The Flower Vendor 1 is finished, we photograph it and send you the photo for approval.
