About The Author
US Department of Agriculture Pomological Watercolor Collection
The USDA Pomological Watercolor Collection is a collection of original watercolors, lithographs, and photographs documenting fruit and nut varieties developed by growers, including USDA plant explorers, around the turn of the 20th century. These technically accurate paintings were used to create lithographs illustrating USDA bulletins, yearbooks, and other series distributed to growers and gardeners across America. The artworks were created by approximately twenty-one artists commissioned by the USDA.
