This event has ended.

The gallery has unearthed and assembled for exhibition a rare, large collection of vintage platinum prints by Edwin Hale Lincoln (1848 - 1938), from his famed series "Wildflowers of New England". This work, in the collections of only a few museums, (There are only 2 complete sets, one at the New York Public Library and the other at the Lenox Library Association), and only showing up on the market in small groups, can now be viewed here as a large coherent body of work, in all its variety.
For 20 years at his home in and around Lenox Massachusetts, Edwin Hale Lincoln, naturalist, photographer and jack-of-all-trades, painstakingly recorded the wildflowers of his native New England on 8 x 10 inch glass plates. 400 Platinum photographic prints make up the eight volumes of Lincoln's magnum opus, published starting in 1914.
