I was reading about Robert Maplethorpe again recently and looking at some of his images of flowers. He is truly a master of photography that I admire. I was inspired to take a few shots of the tulips I got for my wife on our 30th wedding anniversary.
Robert Mapplethorpe (November 4, 1946 – March 9, 1989) was an American photographer, known for his large-scale, highly stylized black and white portraits, photos of flowers and nude men. The frank homoeroticism of some of the work of his middle period triggered a more general controversy about the public funding of artworks.

Hi there I had a question about the four tulips picture. Is this an emulation/interpretation of Robert Mapplethorpe's flowers or is it an original of his work, the reason I ask is because I emulated this photo for a photography assignment at my University and my professor was curious if it was Mapplethorpe's or yours. If you could reply to this email at your earliest convenience I would greatly appreciate it.
