Excerpt from Notes on Some of the Principal Pictures Exhibited in the Rooms of the Royal Academy 1875 It is now just twenty years since I wrote first number of these notes; and fifteen, since they were discontinued. I have no intention renewing the series, unless occasionally, should accident detain me in London during the spring. But this year, for many reasons, it seemed me imperatively proper to say as much as is here said. And that the temper of the saying may not, so far as I can prevent it, be mistaken, I will venture to ask my reader to hear, and trust that he will believe, thus much concerning myself.

Excerpt from Notes on Some of the Principal Pictures: Exhibited in the Rooms of the Royal Academy: 1855 There are two other works by this artist in the rooms, Nos. 304. And 306. It would be well to examine them at once in succession, lest they should afterwards be passed carelessly when the mind has been interested by pictures of higher aim; for all these flower paintings are remarkable for very lovely, pure, and yet unobtrusive colour - perfectly tender, and yet luscious (note the purple rose leaves especially), and a richness of petal texture that seems absolutely scented. The arrangement is always graceful - the backgrounds sometimes too faint. I wish this very accomplished artist would paint some banks of flowers in wild country, just as they grow, as she appears slightly in danger of falling into too artificial methods of grouping.
