Biography


Anne Henslow was born in 1833.[1][2] She was the youngest daughter[3] of botanist and Cambridge University professor John Stevens Henslow and Harriet Jenyns, who was the daughter of clergyman George Leonard Jenyns and the sister of naturalist Leonard Jenyns.[4]: 46  Her older sister Frances Harriet married botanist Joseph Dalton Hooker,[4]: 264  and one of her brothers, George, became a professor of botany.[5]

In 1859 she married army officer Robert Cary Barnard, who was the son of an old friend of her father's.[3][6] They had eight children.[1][7]

Barnard's father was one of the first Cambridge University professors to give illustrated lectures, for which he used poster-size illustrations. Some of these were based on rough sketches by Barnard that were then finished by the botanical artist Walter Hood Fitch.[8]

She contributed plates to Curtis's Botanical Magazine in the years 1879–94.[9] She also illustrated Daniel Oliver's 1864 Lessons in Elementary Biology, which was built on a manuscript left by her father. It stayed in print for several decades.[9] Although her output was not large, she was considered a very fine botanical artist.[10]

She died on 19 January 1899.[9]
