Created by Robert White in the late 17th century, this print offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable individual who revolutionized the field of botany. Robert Morison's story is one of resilience and dedication. Born in Scotland in 1620, he faced adversity during the Civil War but managed to escape to France after being wounded.
