A painting by Marianne North showing a coral snake and spider in Brazil, with a striking Flor Imperiale plant. The work is a botanical illustration, notable for its documentary accuracy and aesthetic appeal.
Marianne North (1830-1890) was a British biologist, botanical artist, and traveller. From 1871, she travelled the world making paintings of plants. She often depicted the local environment and wildlife alongside the flora. Her work is notable for its documentary accuracy and aesthetic appeal. She bequeathed her collection to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, establishing a gallery to house them. This painting depicts a scene in Brazil. A coral snake, with its distinctive red, black, and white bands, coils across the foreground. Behind it, a striking Flor Imperiale plant, also known as a blood lily, displays its spherical cluster of red flowers. A spider lurks in the upper-left corner, adding an element of the unexpected to the composition. The backdrop is a rocky, green-tinged surface, possibly a cliff face or dense foliage, which provides a natural setting for the subjects. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the snake's scales, the flower's delicate structure, and the spider's intricate web.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
