This painting of a hydraganea is something of a mystery.We don’t really know who the artist was
except that he or she was based in Maidstone in Kent, and his or her work was
exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1780.
The work on vellum is in
the style of Georg Dionysus Ehret (1708-70), and it is possible that the artist
here was one of his many pupils.
