Carrie Roy is Curator of Art and Research Scholar at the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation in Pittsburgh, PA.
She is planning to give a presentation that focuses on the History of Botanical Art which will allow her to include a large range of items from the Hunt collection, as well as items from the Library collection. This will give us access to a much larger group of items than we would ever see in person. She will be sure to including a few Dowden pieces when she gets to the more contemporary section, and will also include a very brief introduction to the Institute as well.
