_Extract from an Article by Mr. Lewis F. Day in the_ "ART
JOURNAL."--"'Decorative Flower Studies' go very far indeed towards
satisfying at once the Decorator, Designer, or Student who wants
trustworthy data upon which to found his work, and the lover of
nature who delights to see deft and delicate rendering of the
thing he knows. The author is duly regardful of the designer's
wants, and supplements the coloured pages by outline drawings of
details likely to be of use to him.... The author's drawing is
always delicate, her treatment of the flower is tasteful, and she
preserves the refinement of natural form. In colour she is content
with a few flat tints, but the drawing, firm and sure if at times
a trifle too thin in line, is instinct with life."
