Bouguereau’s “Crown of Flowers” depicts two young peasant girls, with the older one placing a crown of wild flowers on the head of the younger one. They are barefoot, simply dressed in peasant style garments and aprons, standing in a wild field, with vegetation in the background.

“Crown of Flowers”, circa 1884
by #WilliamBouguereau (1825-1905)

The piece that made me fall in love with Bouguereau’s art style. It’s housed in #Montreal ‘s Museum of Fine Arts #MMFA
