Marianne North was a remarkable Victorian traveller and painter who traversed the globe recording the world's flora with her paintbrush and writing her experiences in her journal. In 1879 she offered her painting collection numbering over 800 to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and at her own expense built a gallery to house them. This book surveys her remarkable body of work.
