Les Eglantines. 1900.
"The subject is the wild rose, but it hardly matters, as it is the flower gatherer who engages our attention; we derive our enjoyment from the way she enjoys the beauty and fragrance around her. Berthon always interprets women with an exquisite finesse—in terms of their spirituality rather than their physical substance” (Gold, p. 136).
