Wildflower : The Life and Art of Ellis Rowan

Description

Ellis Rowan was a superbly talented and highly skilled Australian artist of the late 19th and early 20th century. In a time when women had little independence and few opportunities to explore the world around them, Ellis showed great courage and travelled through Australia and New Guinea on her own. Her mission was to record the exotic beauty of the plants, flowers and birds which she saw around her.

‘Wildflower’ is an introduction to the inspirational life and exquisite artwork of Ellis Rowan.
