Title:	Linaria (Frauenflachs & Leinkraut)
Artist:	Fischer, August (Copenhagen, 1854 - Vienna, 1921)
Date:	c. 1890
Medium:	Original Watercolour
Note:	August Fischer: Born in Denmark, August Fischer studied painting and drawing at the Royal Academy of Copenhagen. He first exhibited his watercolours and paintings there in 1876 and shortly thereafter began to travel throughout Europe, particularly to Italy, Germany and Austria. Fischer eventually settled in Vienna (c. 1885) and became most highly regarded for his watercolours of landscapes, genre scenes and botanical studies. In this latter category, August Fischer was commissioned for both still life scenes and for the more scientific field of botanical illustration. Linaria is a fine example of this artist's work in the area of botanical illustration.
	For Linaria, Fischer actually depicted two plants of the same species (Frauenflachs & Leinkraut) -- one in full flower and the other bearing its late summer seeds. True to his well known artistic gifts, August Fischer chose to entwine the plants, thus fulfilling both the elements of design and the accuracy of scientific observation. Studies such as this show Fischer's artistry as surely as any of his landscapes or other works of art.
