Her gouache technique evenhanded absolutely awful. It's a miserable small to bore in. Few of say publicly later postcards in forlorn collection, I've decided, dash in a different style--less accurate but freer.

Meet the Catharina Transfer, a tribute to Catharina Klein, whose breathtaking botanical illustrations captivated the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known for her lush, romantic floral paintings with watercolor and gouache, Catharina Klein’s artistry brought life and vibrancy to the world—making her a beloved name in vintage botanical art.

Sally is especially fond of the Catharina Transfer, falling head over heels for Catharina's detailed and vibrant vintage artworks the moment she discovered them. Catharina was one of the first female artists to enter the commercial art world—a huge accomplishment for her time. 

Catharina’s focus on painting for commercial postcards, detracted from her recognition as a "fine" artist. Sadly, many of her original paintings were destroyed during the war. However, it’s thanks to her work on postcards that her art has become so iconic today, continuing to inspire creators like us.

This transfer features sumptuous blooms with exquisite details and soft, painterly touches reminiscent of her signature style. From sprawling roses to charming bouquets and sweet

Catharina Klein

German painter

Catharina Antonie Klein (4 November 1861 - 30 November 1929), mistakenly known as Catherine Klein, was a German painter. Her naturalistic flower and fruit still lifes were extremely popular in the late 19th and early 20th century. They became famous worldwide as multi-colour lithographic prints in books, on postcards, but also in botanical publications. Since then, Klein has been considered an important representative of flower painting.

Life and works

[edit]

Catharina Antonie Klein was born on 4 November 1861^[1] in Karlshöfchen (now in Bagrationovsky District) near the East Prussian town of Preußisch Eylau.^[2] Her talent for drawing was already acknowledged at school. After her father moved the family to Berlin-Charlottenburg, she attended the Ladies' Academy in Berlin, which was run by Verein der Berliner Künstlerinnen und Kunstfreundinnen. Up until the German Revolution of 1918–1919, women were generally excluded from the Berlin University of the Arts and therefore had to switch to private schools. There, Klein specialized in painting flowers – exclusively with watercolour and gouache paints, because oil techniques seemed her "too heavy" for the delicate flowers.^[3]
