The Marianne North Gallery

The Marianne North Gallery in London is a unique art space showcasing over 800 paintings by Marianne North, a Victorian-era botanical artist. She traveled extensively, capturing vivid, detailed images of plants, landscapes, and people from around the world, often without formal training. The gallery, part of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, displays her work in a lush, natural setting that complements her vibrant paintings. It offers visitors insight into her adventurous spirit and passion for biodiversity, serving as both an art exhibition and a celebration of global flora and landscapes from the 19th century.
