82 Portrait of Sarah Allen, née Sargent (1729–92) JohnSingletonCopleyC.J.RENNER

Flowers are typically associated with femininity, but biological and formal lenses reveal their masculine side. This arrangement is an attempt to empathize with the subject of this painting. What sort of arrangement would she design?

I always loved the Mrs. Froude portrait, and I focused on complementing her with flowers of similar colors.


84 The Comtesse d’Egmont Pignatelli in Spanish Costume AlexanderRoslinDENESEERICKSON,MINNESOTAPEONYSOCIETY

Just look at her! The Comtesse was the “It” girl of Parisian high society in the 1700s. Her husband gave her everything. We imagine that she had an elegant garden to match this opulence, and of course, it included peonies!

85 Portrait of Catherine Coustard, (1673–1728), Marquise of Castelnau, Wife of Charles-Léonor Aubry (1667-1735) with her Son Léonor (1695–1770) NicolasdeLargillièreLOUISANNHELGESON

Largillière created portraits of France’s wealthy middle class using the drawing and painting techniques of the Flemish masters. The elegant gown in this portrait is reflected in the floral arrangement and in the vase—both created by the arranger.

86 The Annunciation AgostinoMasucciERINRADKEANDJEFFRADKE

Our family used tree blossoms to symbolize the Holy Spirit. Mary and Gabriel are reflected in spring flowers from Grandpa Dave and Grandma Joyce’s garden in Maplewood. The lily is also in Masucci’s painting. Its smell is an announcement.

91 The Denial of St. Peter GerritVanHonthorstBRENDAHARVIEUXANDBRIANEGGERT,MINNESOTA

STATEHORTICULTURALSOCIETY

To emphasize Van Honthorst’s dramatic use of light and staging, our interpretation follows the work’s three distinct layers (left back-facing figures, central illuminated figures, and right profiled figures) with three sections of plant material, all surrounding a central light source.


92 Shepherd Boy Pointing at Tobias and the Angel AbrahamBloemaertKARIJAKSHAANDBARBARAPROESCHEL

This shepherd boy obviously wants to share a story with us—how the angel Raphael helped Tobias on his journey. Raphael is considered a patron of healing and of travelers. How fitting since we both enjoy travel.
