Robert Furber
Robert Furber painted pictures and hand-painted engravings of botanical images which were not only decorative but also of historical interest. Generally in series of twelve, Furber's most famous pictures feature flowers and fruit. In 1700, Furber opened a nursery at Kensington Gore, London. Here he was able to nurture the plants as well as to observe and painting them. Thirty years later, he produced the first illustrated horticultural trade catalogue.
