1000 Years of Botanical Art Featuring one thousand years of botanical art, this catalogue represents the Ashmoleans leading exhibition of 2005, providing the unique opportunity to compare illustrations by contemporary artists alongside remarkable botanical art of the past. Chosen by Dr Shirley Sherwood from her acclaimed collection of botanical paintings by artists worldwide, & from the rich historical treasures of Oxford libraries & museums, such as the Flora Graeca by Ferdinand Bauer, one of Oxfords greatest treasures, these inspiring images stand at the interface between art & science.
