Abstract
Marianne North, a well-to-do and well-connected Victorian lady painter, made a number of expeditions to all parts of the world to paint plants and flowers in their native habitat. Over 800 of her paintings are displayed in a special gallery which she donated to Kew Gardens. The article concentrates on her travels in various parts of Asia, especially Japan, Sarawak, Java, Ceylon and India.
