Magnolia Grandiflora, about 1885–95 Martin Johnson Heade, American (1819–1904)
Some of Martin Johnson Heade’s most sensuous paintings are of magnolia blossoms, a subject he came to specialize in after moving to Florida in 1883. Our collection of “magnolia” merchandise is inspired by Magnolia Grandiflora an exquisite oil on canvas painted between 1885 and 1895.
