Lady Painters. The Flower Painters of Early New Zealand.

Bee Dawson.

Illustrated with beautiful original paintings by the nine women botanical artists described, the work spans almost a full century, from the beginnings of European settlement until the early years of the twentieth century. The women were both amateur and professional artists and some were published, but each was enchanted and inspired by the native flora around them.
