About the artwork
This flower-filled watercolour scene is a Helen Allingham’s rendition of Gertrude Jekyll’s garden at Munstead Wood. Jekyll was a garden designer and horticulturalist who described herself as an ‘artist gardener’. During her lifetime she designed over 400 gardens across the UK, Europe and the US, with a lasting influence on garden and landscape design. Her Surrey gardens were famous for their beauty and creative use of planting for colour, which Allingham captured here in watercolours.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Helen Allingham (1848 – 1926) was a British artist and illustrator. Showing talent in art from a young age, Allingham studied at the Birmingham School of Design, the Royal Female School of Art, the National Art Training School and the Royal Academy School in London. During her studies, she worked as an illustrator for books, periodicals and newspapers, achieving so much success that she gave up her studies to pursue her career. After her marriage in 1874, she gave up illustration and focused on watercolour painting. When her husband died in 1889, she supported her young family with the sales of her rural watercolour scenes, which were immensely popular. Although these works were criticised by some as overly sentimental, Allingham became the first woman to be admitted as a full member of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1890, and exhibited her work internationally at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois. She died in Surrey, aged 78.
