Women of FlowersHarry N. Abrams, 1996 - 223 páginas In this amazing book, hundreds of dazzling full-color floral paintings and botanical prints illustrate the fascinating life stories of Victorian women artists who made tremendous contributions to the art and science of botany. However most received little or no recognition for their work. Women of Flowers finally pays homage to these remarkable artists and it does so in a book of exceptional beauty and charm. |
