The Paper Garden: An Artist Begins Her Life's Work at 72 by Molly Peacock

4.0

This biography of Mary Delaney contains beautiful reproductions of her flower mosaics. She began making them at the age of 72, after losing her second husband.
Her life (1700-1788) was spent between England and Ireland, at court and in the country.
Read it straight through in one day.
