Field maple tree with leaves, flowers and samara fruit, Acer campestre. Handcoloured botanical illustration drawn from nature by Mrs. Rebecca Hey from her own "Spirit of the Woods," London, Longman, Rees, 1837. Rebecca Hey was a Victorian writer, poet and artist who wrote "Moral of Flowers" 1833 and "Recollections of the Lakes" 1841. The plates were probably engraved by William Clark, former draughtsman to the London Horticultural Society, and engraver on Hey's previous book.
