Description
A winged passion flower vine is wrapped around a fluted column, dominating the foreground. In the narrow strips of background on either side of the column, lush foliage and a portion of a classical dome are glimpsed.
In 1799, Robert John Thornton, a medically trained doctor & devoted botanist, began the production of The Temple of Flora – a volume of large-format engravings of beautiful, coloured floral portraits.
