Anne Rudge

Anne Rudge (29 October 1761 – 1 September 1836) was a British botanical illustrator who illustrated the works of her husband, the botanist Edward Rudge and her son, the barrister and antiquary Edward John Rudge, among others.[1] She is one of the earliest known published female botanical artists, as, unlike many other female artists in her field at that time, she signed her work.
