Still Life with Lemons [and a Bee], late 1640s, by #GiovannaGarzoni (Italian, 1600-1670). Source, @apollo-magazine.com, apollo-magazine.com/can-tefaf-ne... #artherstory #womenartists #WorldBeeDay
A delicate watercolor drawing of three lemons on two branches with leaves, with three white flower heads sitting in front of the fruit on a beige-gray surface (maybe a cloth, maybe a stone ledge). Above the largest lemon, which sits just to the left of the middle of the artwork, hovers a bee in flight, perhaps about to alight on a stalk of flowers that emerges from the portion of the branch just behind the fruit.
