Christmas wreath of box, laurel and holly, Buxus sempervirens, Prunus laurocerasus, and Ilex aquifolium. Handcoloured botanical illustration drawn from nature by Mrs. Rebecca Hey from her own "Spirit of the Woods," London, Longman, Rees, 1837. Rebecca Hey was a Victorian writer, poet and artist who wrote "Moral of Flowers" 1833 and "Recollections of the Lakes" 1841.
