contents Madame Davit: Enjoying nature: Botanical illustration from a gender perspective Àngels Viladomiu Àngel Romo Comunicación Suzanne Davit nature aesthetics gender perspective epistolary sorority botanical illustration Suzanne Davit (Paris, 1897–Barcelona, 1973) is little known and studied, despite the relevancy of her legacy to the Catalan botanical illustration of the early and mid-20th century. Great botanists such as Pius Font i Quer greatly valued her unique way of capturing nature. As a woman and an artist who was passionate about nature and who was also scientifically very curious, her representation of plants was different from the typical work of the time. Her innovations are interpreted as an alternative artistic discourse to the dominant patriarchal dialogue and a manifestation of the female touch. Access to unpublished documents – Davit’s correspondence with a friend – has made it possible to reconstruct some of the key aspects of her work, involving the crossroads between the aesthetic exaltation of flowers and a gender perspective. 2024 artículo científico 2174-3487 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=511778116028 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511778116028/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511778116028/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511778116028/511778116028.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511778116028/movil https://doi.org/10.7203/metode.14.25553 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5117 Mètode Science Studies Journal application/pdf Universitat de València Mètode Science Studies Journal (España) Num.14
