George Edwards ( 1694 - 1773 ) is often considered to be the father of British ornithology, although his work included descriptions and illustrations of many exotic species as well as natives of Britain. He was naturally gifted as a scientist and draughtsman, and he was also fortunate in attracting the friendship of men such as Sir Hans Sloane and Mark Catesby. For many years he made drawings of animals for Sloane, and when he began to consider writing and illustrating his own book birds, Catesby taught him the technique of engraving, as he himself says in his introduction to "Gleanings of Natural History". We are proud to offer this engraving by George Edwards. Original engravings by him are extremely difficult to obtain.

This fantastic botanical print was produced by Thomas Meehan in his extensive work, “The Native Flowers and Ferns of the United States”. Meehan stated, “It will be an anthology in the truest sense of the word, and will not aim at anything further than to cull the most beautiful, interesting, and important from amongst the vast number of plants which grow in the different parts of our country”. Mr. Alois Lunzer painted all the plants from specimens submitted by botanists from all around the country. L. Prang and Company, the finest lithographer in American history, printed and published this extensive undertaking. These chromolithographs provided a valuable overview of the floral wealth of our country.
