Description
Women of Flowers pays tribute to the female colonial artists who drew and painted the indigenous wildflowers and plants of Australia. The publication focuses on the rich holdings of albums, sketchbooks and paintings in the Pictures Collection of the National Library of Australia, as well as works from other major collecting institutions. Each chapter presents a short biography of an artist, followed by a ‘portfolio’ section of images, in a similar layout to the previous successful title Brush with Birds.
Artists include: Marianne Collinson Campbell; Ellis Rowan; Dorothy English Paty; Ida McComish; Louisa Ann Meredith.
