QPQ: Done. |
Overall: There ought to be a picture included. The article doesn't currently include any botanical illustrations, which is a shame, so a portrait of the subject would be good.I looked for examples of the subject's work but didn't find much online. I've found a photo of her at work (right) which might be suitable. The nominator suggested the portrait which is the lead image. Andrew D. (talk) 17:50, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for reviewing, Andrew Davidson! I also had trouble finding available images of her work online, but I have added a different image of Canning to the hook; let me know what you think. I will also complete my QPQ requirement today, and post here when done. Ruby 2010/2013 20:10, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
