BIOGRAPHY OF WILLIAM ROSCOE

BIOGRAPHY OF WILLIAM ROSCOE

William Roscoe was a Liverpool banker and amateur botanist who founded the Liverpool Botanical Garden in 1802. His "Monandrian Plants of The Order Scitaminae" contained 112 hand colored lithographs by a number of artists, including his daughter in law Mrs. Edward Roscoe. The plates were probably lithographed by Hullmandel, and were colored by George Graves jr. The first edition was only 150 copies and thought to be one of the most impressive lithographed botanical books.
