Paret y Alcázar was a brilliant Spanish Rococo artist contemporary of Goya . In this lovely book, with an extense research of art historian Manuela Mena, we also discover botany, history of garlands and much more in these couple of paintings. Its title, The Triumph of Love over War , is full of significance also in its flowers.

You can appreciate here and here the paintings hosted at the Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao . You can also purchase the catalogue in Spanish.
