"Picking Flowers" is a notable painting by the Scottish artist Edward Atkinson Hornel, who was a prominent figure in the Glasgow Boys, a group of influential artists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Created in 1891, this work exemplifies Hornel's distinctive style, which often combined elements of Impressionism with the decorative qualities of the Arts and Crafts Movement. The painting captures a serene and idyllic scene of young girls engaged in the simple, yet timeless, activity of picking flowers in a lush, verdant landscape.

Hornel's technique in "Picking Flowers" is characterized by his use of rich, vibrant colors and a textured, almost tapestry-like surface. He employed a heavy impasto technique, layering thick applications of paint to create a sense of depth and movement within the foliage and floral elements. This approach not only adds a tactile quality to the work but also enhances the overall sense of natural beauty and tranquility.

The composition of "Picking Flowers" reflects Hornel's interest in Japanese art, which he studied extensively during a trip to Japan in 1893. This influence is evident in the flattened perspective and the emphasis on decorative patterns, which are hallmarks of Japanese woodblock prints. The painting also showcases Hornel's fascination with the innocence and purity of childhood, a recurring theme in his oeuvre.

"Picking Flowers" is housed in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, where it continues to be admired for its artistic merit and its representation of Hornel's unique contribution to Scottish art. The painting remains a testament to Hornel's ability to blend different artistic influences into a cohesive and visually captivating whole, making it a significant work in the context of late 19th-century British painting.
