Botanical Installation at the Farmstead in 2022
Picture
In 2021, the D&R Greenway Land Trust invited Garden State Watercolor Society artists to create a series of botanical paintings depicting the flowers, vegetables and herbs that were once a part of the garden of the Joseph Bonaparte estate, Bordentown, New Jersey. The Gardener’s House Museum on the estate will contain 20 select pieces in its permanent collection when it opens later this year.  This installation of botanicals is the larger group from which those were chosen. Thank you to all the artists who submitted.
