The Field Notes

These three pieces, dating back to the early 1900s, showcase the field notes made by the artist in a detailed botanical style, emphasizing the stems and the muted coloration that ranges from soft browns to subtle creams.

They feature “Broomrape”, “Golden Chamomile”, and “Lesser Bindweed” as spotted around the UK on the artist’s travels.

The paintings are encased in midcentury Mexican hand-carved wooden frames, which add a textural and cultural depth to the pieces. The frames’ intricate carving with leaf motifs complements the botanical theme, while the updated gallery glass ensures that the artwork is preserved and displayed with clarity.

Ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of both botanical illustration and unique framing styles, “The Field Notes” marry historical botanical art with the distinctive craftsmanship of mid-20th-century Mexican woodwork. They not only celebrate the beauty of natural flora but they also highlight the artistry involved in the presentation, making this trio a notable addition to any collection that loves celebrations of both the personal and natural worlds.
