Blue Orchid 'After Pre Raphalites Photograph - Limited Edition of 5

The artwork "Blue Orchid 'After Pre-Raphaelites'" by Dorothy Nkemdirim is a digital photograph that was manipulated to create a painterly effect. The photograph depicts a close-up of a blue orchid, with the petals arranged in a way that resembles a Pre-Raphaelite painting. The colors are lush and vibrant, and the overall effect is one of beauty and delicacy. The Pre-Raphaelites were a group of English painters who were active in the mid-19th century. They were influenced by the art of the Italian Renaissance, and they rejected the prevailing styles of their time, which they felt were too academic and artificial. The Pre-Raphaelites emphasized the importance of detail and realism, and they often used symbolism in their work. In "Blue Orchid 'After Pre-Raphaelites'," Nkemdirim pays homage to the Pre-Raphaelites by using their techniques and style. However, she also adds her own unique touch by manipulating the photograph to create a more modern and abstract effect. The result is a beautiful and thought-provoking work of art that bridges the gap between two different eras. The blue orchid is a symbol of love, beauty, and mystery. It is also a rare flower, which makes it even more desirable. In the context of the Pre-Raphaelites, the blue orchid can be seen as a symbol of their desire to create art that was both beautiful and meaningful. Nkemdirim's photograph is a reminder of the enduring beauty of the blue orchid and the power of art to capture and convey that beauty. It is a work that is both visually stunning and intellectually stimulating. Photo Print Under Matte Acrylic Glass which absorbs light and reduces glare.
