An extremely fine and exquisitely painted watercolor “In the Garden” by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Filosa (1850-1935). It is a radiant painting with a wonderful subtle coloration and very charming late 19th century “en plein-air” imagery. Filosa's technique is similar in quality to the work of the 19th Century Pre-Raphaelite watercolorist, Albert Moore. Gilt frame and filet with silk mount.
