Modern (excluding Victorian Fairy Paintings - 1850-1950 )

This section includes still lifes, mushroom gathering scenes, studies, portraying mushrooms in a large number of contexts. The dates following the artist’s name are often those of his period of greatest creativity, not necessarily the dates of his birth and death. Some entries overlap with the post-1950 period and may also be found in that file.
