DESCRIPTION: Chromolithograph from "The Flowering Plants, Sedges and Ferns of Great Britain," by Anne Pratt, who wrote more than 20 books which she illustrated with chromolithographs. Pratt's works were written in popular style but were said to be accurate. She was responsible for the popularising of Botany. She never achieved critical acclaim on the grounds that she was self-taught. She collaborated with William Dickes, an engraver skilled in the chromolithograph process.
