My Favorite Garden: Works by
Monika E. de Vries Gohlke
Saturday, March 7–Sunday, May 24, at the Steinhardt Conservatory Gallery.
Opening reception: Saturday, March 21
This impressive collection of watercolors, etchings, drypoints, aquatints, and sketches in pencil were produced over the last decade. The exhibition features images of the Garden's roses, orchids, and peonies, as well as some of BBG's remarkable trees, including hand-colored etchings of mango and coffee trees in the Tropical Pavilion and watercolors of the lesser-known native pawpaw and the curious Japanese raisin tree. The artist is a fellow of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Florilegium Society, and her work is in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
