The appreciation of flower paintings, their beauty and the technical skill of their painters, has grown greatly in recent years. Peter Mitchell's book responds to this increased general interest and is at the same time a valuable work of reference. He follows the evolution of flower painting through four centuries, notably in its great period in seventeenth- and eighteenth century Holland, Flanders, France and Germany. He continues with the painters of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, assesses the British and American contributions, and gives botanical artists their due place.
