Howdy,

Received this request/announcement of interest to botanical artists/art collectors:

"The Margaret Mee Foundation in Brazil is seeking original watercolours

by this remarkable artist, with a view to organizing the catalogue

raisonné of her works. This will lead to the publication of a bilingual

book, The Complete Works of Margaret Mee, sponsored by the BBM Bank.

The resulting publication will not only promote the value of the works

featured, but be invaluable to the artistic and scientific communities,

and a delight to all who enjoy nature and fine flower paintings.

"If you have, or know of the whereabouts of, an original Margaret Mee

work, please make contact with us through mmee@alternex.com.br or

through the Margaret Mee Office, The Herbarium, Royal Botanic Gardens,

Kew, Surrey TW9 3AB, England, or through www.margaretmee.org.br "

With good wishes,

Z.
