Flowers as a subject in themselves begin to appear within the “natures
death”, a genre that saw the light at the beginning of the 17th century. Later
the attention of painters to the floral world, especially with the Impressionists,
is becoming increasingly important, as it is an extraordinary opportunity to capture
chromatic and luminous vibrations. Thus the flowers begin to appear not
not only in pots, but also immersed in their natural landscape. If at the beginning
of its history was a pretext for painters to try their hand at a reproduction
photographic reality, with contemporary art the subject of flowers becomes
also a way of interpreting reality. Even the subject of the vase of flowers is
quite recurrent in Antonietta Corsini's production, as an extraordinary opportunity for naturalistic rendering and precious color harmonies.

The painter Antonietta Corsini has succeeded in bringing the watercolour technique to
highest peaks of formal perfection. In his work, in fact, the precision of
a naturalistic rendering that is extremely faithful to the sensitive data is combined with lightness
typical of diluted color. We can also appreciate it in his series
dedicated to flowers, where the use of watercolour is so refined that it only gives back
through an elegant play of colours, the shape of the flowers and the plasticity of the
vases. The coexistence of different elements in a small space allows
to the artist to make the most of the aesthetic peculiarities of the dilution of the
color. And so the floral composition resolves itself in a light play of
glazes, of semi-transparent harmonies, of tones on tones in a whole
kaleidoscopic and full of light.
