History
Agnes Chamberlin was born in Coburg, Ont., in 1833. In 1863, she began to paint studies of wild flowers to illustrate a projected book by Catherine Parr Traill on Canadian flora. Her book Canadian Wild Flowers was first published in 1868, and was eventually published in three more editions (two in 1869, and one in 1895). Nine more of her paintings were reproduced as illustrations for C.P. Traill's work, Studies of Plant Life in Canada, published in 1885. Chamberlin died in 1913.
