Auricula (1996): A Modernist Still Life by Mary Fedden
Mary Fedden’s 1996 work, Auricula, is a sublime example of British Modernism, blending a naive sensibility with sophisticated composition. This fine art print captures the quiet elegance of the auricula plant, a subject Fedden returned to throughout her prolific career. As one of Britain’s most beloved 20th-century artists and the first female painting tutor at the Royal College of Art, Fedden’s legacy is defined by her ability to transform domestic objects into poetic, flattened arrangements of color and form.
At RedKalion, we have meticulously reproduced this 1996 masterpiece to preserve the depth of Fedden’s signature palette. Each 70x100 cm (28x40 inches) framed art print is crafted to museum standards, ensuring that the subtle textures and unique silhouettes of the original are rendered with absolute fidelity. The black wooden frame provides a contemporary contrast, grounding the artwork's airy, floral charm.
