About this book

A Vision of Eden: The Life and Work of Marianne North by J P M Brenan. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780112500889.

Marianne North, an unmarried middle-aged Victorian lady of comfortable means, set off in 1871 on her first expedition to make a pictorial record of the tropical and exotic plants of the world. The fascinating story of her travels is told in this abridged and lavishly illustrated version of her memoirs and autobiography, first published in 1893. Marianne produced more than 800 paintings and they are housed in a special gallery at Kew.
