Ellis Rowan - painter, naturalist, writer, explorer - was an extraordinary woman for her era. Petite, plucky, and always immaculately dressed, for almost 50 years she travelled to the remote parts of Australia, India, Europe, America, and New Guinea in pursuit of exotic flowers and wildlife to paint. Over 3000 works testify to her prodigious output. For all her accolades, however, Rowan's reputation was contentious, even after her death. The Flower Hunter: Ellis Rowan aims to establish her rightful place in Australian art history.
