Dog rose, Rosa canina, from Robert Tyas' "Queen of Flowers, or Memoirs of the Rose," London, 1840. Unsigned handcoloured lithograph, but probably by James Andrews. Little is known about the artist James Andrews (1801~1876) apart from his work. This gifted artist taught flower-painting to young ladies and published a treatise "Lessons in Flower Painting" in 1835. Blunt calls him "an illustrator of sentimental flower books," but admits that he was "very talented." His signature JA can be found in many botanical gift books for publisher Robert Tyas from "The Sentiment of Flowers" (1836) to "Flowers from Foreign Lands" (1853).
