Original Description
"Two Red Roses Across The Moon" by Ernest Archibald Taylor (1874–1951) is a captivating example of British Symbolist and Art Nouveau painting from the early 20th century. The dreamlike composition features two vibrant red roses arching gracefully against a shimmering crescent moon, suspended in a mystical twilight sky. Taylor's delicate brushwork creates luminous depth, with glowing celestial bodies emerging from textured indigo backgrounds reminiscent of Japanese woodblock prints. As a prominent member of "The Four" (the Glasgow School artists), Taylor pioneered this distinctive style blending Celtic revival motifs with Continental Art Nouveau aesthetics. The painting represents an important transitional work between Victorian romanticism and modernist abstraction, embodying the late Arts and Crafts Movement's philosophy of beauty in everyday objects through its floral subject matter treated with reverential symbolism.
When displaying this artwork, opt for intimate spaces that reward contemplation – perhaps a reading nook with soft lighting or a bedroom alcove where its dreamy quality enhances relaxation. Frame it in an Arts & Crafts-style oxidized silver or quarter-sawn oak frame to honor its period origins, ensuring the matting doesn't compete with the rich midnight blues. Its 24 × 18 inch proportions work beautifully above low furniture like console tables or as part of a salon-style gallery wall, particularly when paired with similarly-toned works by Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh or Charles Rennie Mackintosh. For contemporary offices, let it anchor a monochromatic blue-gray scheme with bronze accents, its roses providing calculated chromatic punctuation. Avoid hanging opposite intense artificial lights which would diminish its subtle luminosity – instead position it where morning light gently activates its celestial glow.
