Abstract
SummaryIn 1834 and 1835, ten plates based on illustrations by ‘Miss Young’ and the ‘Hon. Miss Norton’ were published in Curtis's Botanical Magazine to illustrate texts prepared by Richard Thomas Lowe and sent through his friend William Jackson Hooker. Mary Young is listed in the Dictionary of British and Irish Botanists and Horticulturists Including plant collectors, flower painters and garden designers, for this contribution and the illustrations in Lowe's History of Fishes of Madeira, as ‘companion to Miss Norton’. No other contributions of these illustrators are mentioned, and little is known about them. Here we present more information concerning these two illustrators and their part in Lowe's work on the flora and fish fauna of Madeira.
