Thrilled to receive my copy of 'Bluestockings and Landscapes in Eighteenth Century Britain'! Huge thanks to the editors, Markman Ellis and Jack Orchard, for all their work bringing this wonderful collection together. Now looking forward to sitting down with a cuppa and reading the other chapters.

Front cover of the book, the title reads 'Bluestockings and Landscape in Eighteenth Century Britain: The Prospect of Improvement', edited by Markman Ellis and Jack Orchard. The image is a watercolour depicting a woman wearing a bonnet and carrying watering can, two dogs jumping by her heels. There are shrubs and a house in the background.

Photograph of chapter page, the title reads, '"The Genius of Rest...those Happy Groves Inspired": Literary Composition, Coterie Sociability and the Gardens at Wrest Park", by Jemima Hubberstey.

Wonderful to see the tulips in bloom at Hampton Court earlier this week - I particularly enjoy their vibrant colours after the grey winter months.

Thrilled to have seen 'The Botanical World of Mary Delany' at Beningbrough Hall at last, showcasing many of her beautifully detailed collages. It was also a treat to see 'Women Artists and Designers at the National Trust', including Sabine Winn's collages. Perfect way to start 2025!

Sign within a stately interior, entitled 'The Botanical World of Mary Delany'. Smaller text describes: 'Mary Delany (1700-1788) transformed ordinary materials into extraordinarily beautiful artworks. Created by delicately painting, cutting, and layering paper, her floral 'mosaiks' as she called them, were admired for their scientific accuracy. Starting in her early 70s, Delany created over 900 'mosaiks' in ten years, until failing eyesight forced her to stop working.

One of Mary Delany's paper mosaiks, 'Portlandia Grandiflora', displayed on a white wall, framed by golden pilasters. The text at the bottom is entitled 'Art and Botany'.

Two of Sabine Winn's collages, which were created by cutting out sections of a print and replacing it with fabric. The top image depicts a woman wearing a simple white shift, sitting on a grassy bank. The second image shows a man and a woman walking through a forest, finely dressed in floral material.
