Snowdrops in art
Tim Ingram:
What a lovely thread - this is a little exhibit of crockery at the Essex AGS Group Local Show, which includes snowdrops on the cup and saucer. It adds a whole new aspect to the winter garden! (My apologies that I don't recall the exhibitor but I do know that one member of the Essex Group regularly shows ferns).
Carolyn Walker:
Fun topic for a thread. I think this drawing/watercolor is quite beautiful. It is on a Christmas card (maybe quite common in the UK?) and is by Margaret W. Tarrant (1888-1959).
Love the Benington Lordship window, Brian, who is Ms. Mills? She lived a long life.
Happy New Year to everyone,
Carolyn

Hello Gail,
Looking at http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/yourpaintings/ and putting Snowdrop in the search engine you can find 15 paintings (including horses named snowdrop!).
Two nice ones are
Gathering Snowdrops by Edward Atkinson Hornel at Glasgow Museums Resource Centre
Portrait of a Woman Holding Snowdrops by Beryl Fowler at The Beacon Museum Whitehaven
Modern ones can be found on eBay!
