Background:
These antique Fern prints are based on drawings by the English artist Anne Pratt
(1806-1893), one of the most successful women botanical illustrators of the 1800s.
They were part of her five volume work The Flowering Plants, Grasses, Sedges and Ferns
of Great Britain. Her published works were readily accepted by the general
public both for the accurate descriptions of the plants, as well as the fine quality of
the botanical illustrations. Pratt received her love of plants and flowers from her
mother, an avid gardener.
