He was an author and editor of a significant collection of writings on the subject of socio-agricultural life in Victorian Britain, and is best remembered from an artistic perspective for his studies of British Ferns; indeed all the fern scenes that are contained in this collection were drawn in Devon, the Lyn Valleys and Torbay. Ferns were immensely popular with the Victorians, who regularly used them to adorn their gardens, and wealthy collectors, who grew them in complex and elaborate ferneries to protect them from the elements. In fact, fern-hunting holidays were far from uncommon. A great lover of foliage, Heath himself happily advised people to take to the countryside "with a garden fork, a stout chisel, a hammer, a strong clasped knife, and a trowel, to get up the entire mass of roots and rootlets". It was, he declared, "a delightful pursuit, which can be followed all the year round". In 1908 a Twelth Edition of The Fern World was demanded and published by Heath, containing 12 masterfully executed chromolithographs of various English Ferns. The aim was to produce realistic, life-size depictions of the fronds, accompanied by detailed and informed descriptions written by Heath himself. The beautiful series combined several studies of different British ferns arranged carefully and creatively in collage with the plants' colours replicated as closely as possible. ********

He studied in Berlin, in 1819 becoming curator of the Royal Herbarium. He was a professor of botany and director of the Botanical Gardens at the Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg from 1833 until his death in 1866. He was editor of the botanical journal "Linnaea" (from 1826), and with Hugo von Mohl (1805-1872), was publisher of the Botanischen Zeitung (from 1843). He conducted important investigations of the then largely unknown flora of Mexico, carried out in conjunction with Adelbert von Chamisso (1781-1838), and based on specimens collected by Christian Julius Wilhelm Schiede (1798-1836) and Ferdinand Deppe (1794-1861). The standard botanical abbreviation "Schltdl." is applied to species he described. OUR GICLEE PRINTS: Your lavender botanical drawing print will be created using archival, fade-resistant, pigment inks, heavyweight, museum-quality paper and a 9-color process fine-art printer to ensure the most vivid, detailed and long-lasting print. To prevent fading, as with all prints, please never expose them to direct sunlight. To protect your investment, we recommend that you mat and frame your prints. There is no mat or frame included with this print unless you purchase it separately. SIZE INFO: The lavender botanical illustration print you will receive will measure exactly the dimensions you ordered, unless you request a custom size. BORDERS: All of our prints are carefully positioned with an eighth inch white border on all sides for matting and framing adjustments, although this may vary slightly based on the size of print you order and the size of the original image. If you would like a different size border, or need to know the exact border size, or a borderless print, just let me know in the "Notes To Seller" when you place your order. MATTING & FRAMING TIPS: Select the PRINT SIZE for your needs, then add the mat dimensions to the print size to determine what your final frame size should be. When you plan to mat a print, the rule of thumb is to order your PRINT SIZE one size smaller than your frame size--this allows for the addition of the mat of your choosing. For a statement wall, bigger is better, both with the print size, and the frame size. TYPICAL FRAME SIZES WE CARRY IN OUR SHOP: 8" x 10" FRAMES are top sellers | Our 8" x 10" archival frames come with a acid-free archival mat for either a 4" x 6", or 5" x 7" image, allowing you to highlight your print.
