Address Book

The Royal Horticultural Society Address Book focuses on works of art done on vellum. Paintings on vellum have a luminosity and richness that is quite unlike those on paper. The address book features works of art on vellum which date mainly from the 18th century and includes paintings by Aubriet (1665-1742), Ehret (1708-70), Bolton (1758-1799), Turpin (1775-1840) and others. The address book has a storage pocket, a stepped tabbed index, ribbon marker and is illustrated in colour throughout.
