Episode 151: Victorian Lady Painters and the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew
This week on We Dig Plants, join Carmen & Alice on a virtual tour of The Royal Botanic Garden Kew’s Illustration Collection which includes prints and drawings that range in date from the great masters of botanical illustration of the 18th century, such as P.J. Redouté and the Bauer brothers, through to George Bond and Walter Hood Fitch in the 19th century. They also reveal one of their favorite parts of Kew: The Marianne North Gallery. They’re joined by Christopher Mills, Head of Library, Art and Archives at Kew Gardens. This program was brought to you by Heritage Foods USA.
