About the Item

A Collection of Botanical Watercolours: Drawings of British Plants Emily Stackhouse (1811-1870) perfectly illustrates the Victorian fascination with the countryside in this remarkable collection. The Stackhouse collection has, for many years, been the subject of extensive research by Clifford Evans, whose article “Forgotten Field” (Country Life, July 6, 1995), fully documents the contemporary confusion associated with the authorship of the illustrations in the highly regarded books Forest Trees of Britain (1847–49), A Week at the Lizard (1848) and Flowers of the Field (1851) by the Reverend Charles Johns.
