George Brookshaw

British
George Brookshaw (1751-1823) was an English painter and illustrator known for his beautiful botanical and fruit still life paintings. He was born in Birmingham, England, and worked as a cabinetmaker and furniture designer before turning to painting. Brookshaw's most famous work is his four-volume book, "Pomona Britannica," which featured detailed illustrations of fruit varieties grown in Britain. His paintings were highly regarded for their realism and attention to detail, and he was praised for his ability to capture the essence of the fruit's appearance and texture. Brookshaw's work was highly influential and helped to popularize the genre of still life painting in England during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
