Hayden - Flowers from my garden

Flowers as an independent subject began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world, as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers were depicted not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also became a way of interpreting reality.

This watercolor lithograph demonstrates Hayden's ability to impeccably convey reality into his work. The work, with its extraordinary objective rendering, almost resembles an illustration designed for the classification and study of a botanical species. The beauty of this lithograph lies in the scientific precision with which the subject is rendered. The drawing demonstrates extraordinary technical skill in capturing the image in every minute detail with a noble naturalistic intent. In this specific case, the application of color adds further value to the execution of the work, as the didactic perfection is tempered by the very light transparent washes of diluted paint. In this way, the work acquires greater immediacy and freshness of execution, and the scientific precision of the representation comes to life thanks to the painter's touch. The choice of color range, simultaneously delicate and full of light, is truly remarkable.

As we can see from this work, Hayden is a painter with a solid academic background who, thanks to an excellent technique, manages to maintain a perfect balance between didactic precision and liveliness of representation.
