Lyons Ltd. referenced in this November's issue of Town & Country
November 1, 2005
Lyons Ltd. is referenced in the recent article "Flower Power," written by David D'Arcy with feature by Ann E. Berman, in the November issue of Town & Country magazine. The article, which discusses both antique and contemporary prints, is a wonderful reflection on the timelessness of botanical images.
An excerpt from the Marketplace section, by Ann E. Berman:
"What to Buy: Antique Botanicals. It's always summer in the floral prints of the great botanical illustrators of the 17th, 18th, and early-19th centuries. Created for the leading scientific and horticultural compendiums of the day, these hand-colored works by Pierre Joseph Redoute, Basilius Besler, Dr. Robert Thornton and others are adored by gardeners - real and manque - everywhere. 'The British have always been obsessed with gardening, and now America is catching up,' says Elissa Cullman of the New York decorating firm Cullman & Kravis. 'Collecting botanicals parallels that interest.'"
