Manet Peonies Habotai Silk Scarf

Edouard Manet (1832-1883) was a seminal figure straddling realism and impressionism at a pivotal point in 19th Century art. This floral ivory, green and red medium habotai silk scarf is based upon a still life by the artist entitled Vase of Peonies on a Small Pedastal (1864)

Habotai is the lightest silk, glossy, with beautiful translucency that lends vibrancy to the colours of its patterns.
