Transylvania Florilegium: Wildflowers of Romania

Fay Ballard

The National Gallery of Art Bucharest Romania & Romanian Cultural Institute London

Curator: Irina Neacșu. The Transylvania Florilegium is a collection of watercolour drawings of rare grasses and wildflowers growing in the meadows and pastures of Transylvania, one of Europe’s last medieval landscapes. It was created under the umbrella of The Prince of Wales’s Foundation Romania to record the flora living there.

The project culminated in two exhibitions and two publications presented by The Prince of Wales’s Charitable Foundation.
