About the Item

Paul Jones. (1921-1997) Flora Superba. London, 1971. Edition of 406. Flora Magnifica. London, 1976. Edition of 506. Lithographs. The portraits of flowers by Paul Jones are quite impressive with dramatic backgrounds and life-sized images. A great 20th Century modern artist, Jones deservedly had quite the success during his lifetime. His paintings are widely held in museum collections including the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England and the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. An Australian, Jones found a world-wide audience for his Flora Superba and Flora Magnifica works. The esteemed British botanist, Wilfred Blunt, has written an engaging text to accompany each flower. An author of great renown, Blunt has critiqued many works on 17th – 19th Century botany. It is the greatest honor to have him contribute to these 20th works by Paul Jones and is a testament to their value both artistically and academically. Even the paper used by Jones, made at Turkey Mill in Kent, is of the highest quality. His pigments are rich and deep speaking to an eye with astute color sense. The works by Paul Jones are sure to have a lasting impression.
